Ive been searching too. If anyone finds any please let us know. I might just get a vinyl overlay or night shades and tint them.

There are no aftermarket tail lights available for the 03-05 LC2 Accent.

No other lights will fit without relatively extensive bodywork. I suggest tinting your tails with either Nite Shades or vinyl. You can do a shape, etc. and make them look more custom than just dark if you want. For instance, not tinting the backup light only can look pretty cool.

You would have to make a clear lens. The actual lens itself is red. Short of making another one on a vacuum forming machine (which you could build yourself) it's not going to happen.

I believe he was referring to red and amber bulbs for the stop/turn lights...
