They are made of Fiberglass. Actually takes 4 molds to make them. From what Dan was telling me. (Dan is the creator/maker)

Genuine Reproduction 1955 Chevy tail light assemblies are used. He does some rewiring work so that they can plug into the HHR's light bulb sockets.(no cutting the sockets off, can go back to the stock tail lights in a few minutes very easily)

The Kit, is 100% Complete, even the Tools needed to install are Included.

Made in the U.S.A.

Ok, thanks.

I was more interested in metal. I know a great cut and weld guy. Never see where the parts were added on.

You seem to be having some bad luck with your new SS

Well I drove mine into work this morning, made a few calls from the bluetooth (which I absolutely love!), and looked down at how much fuel I still had and realized how nice it was that I may be able to get a whole two weeks out of this tank! Also checked the tracking information for my LEDs and they are out for delivery

Took Morticia out for a little drive early this morning(about 4AM) and took my camera along. Stopped at Dunkin Donuts for an X Large Coffee then headed out lookin for someplaces to take some pics at night with something interesting in the background.

I Need alot of help with Night shots, just taking some Practice shots trying to figure out how to get the Car lighted better in front of lighted backgrounds.

(these pics were Never meant be posted)

I was stopped at this little OLD Ice House thats been their as long as I can remember.

6 lane road Busy all day and evening, but at 4AM I was able to pull up in Front of it and try taking some shots, I was standing in the middle of the street trying to set different settings on my camera to see if I could get the CAR Lit up, and a Black SS HHR drove by, he did a U turn and stopped, we talked for a little bit and I snapped a pic of his Black SS and my Black Panel in front of the Ice House.

He did the U turn because he saw my Tail Lights and said he wanted to get them on his SS.

There is NO PARKING Signs in front of this little self serve ice house so thats the reason I went out at 4AM, to PARK in Front of it.

Cool pics A&P, nice atmosphere! Sounds like you made a friend and maybe we'll have another new member here too.

OT for me, walked down to the garage to grab some tools and I looked at the HHR's and the Fiat all dirtied up from this week's rain, I know what I'll be doing tomorrow.

Can you still call them "Dishpan Hands" when you get them from washing cars?

Yeah he was pretty cool.

I told him to come on here.

He took Video of mine driving down the road as we pulled away.
Hopefully he comes on and sends it to me.

Couple other stops last night/early this morning.
