Has anyone on here done the caddy tail light conversion for their truck. IM seriously thinking about doing it. My friend has the light and i can get them for cheap, then just buy the filler panels, and the tail light buckets from stylin concepts weld and presto. Just wanted to know if anyone has pics of a finished product. thoughts welcomed
dear god no.
I take it u r not in agreeance with the Caddy light huh...... Did u ever get that gray piece of crap running????
haha nah im just playing.. nah I didnt I said screw it and came back to austin.
Well since im in the process of shaving the tail gate handle and then gonna put on a new roll pan, thought might as well do the caddy light and complete the theme on the back of the truck, especially since a friend of mine has the lights and crome bezels for super cheap...... could probally do the whole conversion for 350 or so in parts.........
Hello is this thing on any suggestions?????
Ive seen it done before. I'm not a huge fan of them. Ive never done it but im sure it isnt too hard to do.
ive seen it on the OBS trucks like mine and i like them never seen on your style personally i just love the new style tails that you can get on yours the 03-05 style i believe with a nice blackout job on them and they look mint.
maybe if you did the cadillac front end also but just haveing the back done might look funny but who knows might turn out awesome.
Just want something different, everyone has smoked tails or something, wanna do something not everyone and their momma can do....
Here is a link to the lights im talking about.. StylinTrucks.com Cadillac Taillight Conversion
I like it... just make sure that they are bright enough... or another dumb tool drivin a honda will bend your roll pan agian.
Here's mine. Also, if you're gonna do it, filling the stake pocket holes is a nice subtle touch.
Hell yeah I like that allot!!
Hey low rider what did u do for back up lights?? That just hit me earlier no back ups on the caddy lights.....
you get a horn that beeps duh
No backup lights. I was going to put very small spot/fog lamps right behind my mudflaps, front and rear. That way I could aim them, put them to a seperate switch left and right, but I never got around to it. It's been this way since 2002, so now I think I just don't need them.Quote:

thanks 4 the input jeffy....my tint is so FN dark u can see out the back window anyways at night... limo tint is dark..
Fire & ice bar. I think it plugs in like trailer lights.
hey man i am all for it, i am in VAPERZ custom car and truck club and we have 2002 GMC Sierra with the caddy tailights! It looks good, i think he bought all the stuff off ebay to do it with and had a body man(richie jones custom creations) install them! I wanted to do mine but once you add labor and parts it's kinda expensive but its worth it! I will post some pics up of his truck!
dont do it!! i say put the 04 tails in there. caddy lights look ok on the OBS. but not yours. caddy lights are old school IMO. then once you do it. its too late to go back. pu th 04-up lights they are alot better
Everyone and their f n granny has 04 tails.........I want something not everyone else has or can do i have the welding skills to do it myself and a welder. Might have redSS do the paint for me.... I got a sick ass customs Black and green paint scheme in mind...
Hell yeah go for it!!!!
I don't like them, to me they look CHEAP!! Not to mention, everybody and their brother has them.Quote:
