This may have already been asked on here, but has anyone succeeded/attempted installing the 2013+ tail light assemblies on the 2010-2011 SHO?  I searched "tail lights" and came up with nothing in the exterior section.

I really like the look of the newer ones as compared to mine.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Spenser

You mean 2013+?  This thread should answer some of your questions:

But basically, you would have to replace the trunklid too.  Gets mighty expensive mighty quick.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Sanding it down and plastidipping it has been reported to be a good solution.

I think DJE624 did his to fix the chrome peeling problem... or maybe just because he didn't like it. Maybe he'll chime in.

MJ... This is a persistent thread on many forums.  I'm anxious to see your solution too! Wanna let us know what your idea is?

Well that was a disappointing answer.  With that being said, has anyone tried these?

Surely the SHO in that video is owned by a member of this forum.
