Tail light studs

[stefan]

I got some smooth tail lights at the j/y today



only problem is...



i snapped a couple studs off. they were rusty like you wouldn't believe. What should i do about this? Is there any way to put in new studs?

Well, I don't know about the studs, but damnit, why can't I find those. There are 2 early Festy's at my local wreckers, and they've both got updated grilles and tail lights.

^^^ I can probably get you a set if your interested, just PM me... as for the studs you can probably pull/unscrew those out and get something similar at the hardware store with nuts to match them.

Nah, my budget's blown to hell right now with this engine swap I'm doing, and the brakes/suspension I've got in the works. Maybe later, though.

!^#%!%$%@#!~!!!!! i cracked the lens on one of them trying to get the stud out! $%%^$!!! and i paid $50 for these

Ahh I see... you paid these old one for $50 dollar? that's seem expensive than new one from KIA Pride tail lights.

Sorry to hear that... Try get other one rust free as possible so you wont have trouble with breaking tail lights later.
