Cool Horizontal Tail light layout.....'60's style

I am just curious, but I am wondering why no one has gone custom with horizontal tail lights? By this I mean four or six lamps across like a StingRay or a early to mid '60's Impala. It would involve sheetmetal work to remove one of the vertical pair on each side, and then adding a pair or pairs on the liftgate. It is not up my alley, but horizontal round tail lights scream "Chevy" to me. Just a thought. God Bless, Marc

Not sure how it would look on a HHR, but it was awesome back in the days! Time for someone with some skills to do a photoshop!

Oh great, thanks for more ideas! Luckily I could probably never afford it!

I saw an hhr in town that had removed the lower light from each side. Then the rear marker lights in the bumber where white instead of red. (assuming these where the backup lights) It actually looked really good and was different

i dunno about that look, i think a set of caddy taillights would look pretty nice, with a 3rd brake overlay to pull it all together, if someone would photoshop that sometime

I like the horizontal look but think the row should be taken from the lower lite.
