Anyone know if these are still produced, or if a warehouse has them somewhere, or even if you do, and would be interested in selling them to me? Any information would help, even info on new tail's besides the ones in the linkB13 Tailights

Those clear tail lights for the b13 were made by NIS-KNACKS, they are no longer being produced due to a fire at their warehouse which destroyed the molds. No one else ever made these so if you want them you better make a bid and snatch them up...

Nope, but thanks for the offer lol. My brother and i ordered two sets for our sentras for $100 shipped. Richard from Nis-Knacks gave us a great deal on them, not long after his warehouse caught fire. Dam we lucked out! They do look sweet i must say...SERfanatic said:

Actually, the Company that made OEM replacements had their manufacturing plant burned down in Taiwan. The plant was scheduled to be up and running a few months later. This is the same company that makes the B14 projectors which Nis-Knacks also sold and is now available elsewhere.sentrapower93 said:

but they're nicer (and legal).fatboypup said:
I jus thought I'd mention, those clear tails will get you some unwanted attention. 3 things that make a tail light legal is hat it 1. shines red (red or amber for the turn signal), 2. the light is visible for I believe 1000ft, and 3. it has reflectors built into the housing so that if white litht is shined at the back of your car, red light will be reflected back. The first 2 are dependent on the bulb, the last one will not happen b/c there are no red reflectors.
§ 46.2-1013. Tail lights.fatboypup said:
Every motor vehicle and every trailer or semitrailer being drawn at the end of one or more other vehicles shall carry at the rear two red lights plainly visible in clear weather from a distance of 500 feet to the rear of such vehicle. Such tail lights shall be constructed and so mounted in their relation to the rear license plate as to illuminate the license plate with a white light so that the same may be read from a distance of 50 feet to the rear of such vehicle. Alternatively, a separate white light shall be so mounted as to illuminate the rear license plate from a distance of 50 feet to the rear of such vehicle. Any such tail lights or special white light shall be of a type approved by the Superintendent.
In any instance where the tail light is to be installed on a boat trailer and the boat extends beyond the end of the trailer or to the end of the trailer, an approved portable light assembly or assemblies may be attached to the exposed rear of the boat, provided such installation complies with the visibility requirements of this section. The provisions of this section shall not apply to motorcycles.

what you do is, go to the hardware section of your local lowes or Home depot, by the mailboxes, there's reflective tape. Find some red reflective tape and tape on a nice design of some sort onto the outside of the housings.

Or you could do as one of the CHP told me to do. Get a pair of 2" reflectors and place them on the rear bumpers much like the new Lexus cars have them. He said that it is totally legal. Cars must have a red reflector in the rear in case someone really stupid doesnt think the clear reflector is coming at them.
