Would anyone in the UK be interested in swapping their 08 LCI tail lights with the amber LED indicators for a set of the 08 US version LCI tails with the red LEDs??

Red turns are not legal in the EU and to be honest after having just spent 2 weeks in the US look quite odd too. It was so confusing to see red lights used for turning, braking, tails etc after a while my eyes were beginning to hurt. So I'd be surprised if anyone would be interested.

Well I was hoping for just swapping the whole tail light but looks like that's not happening.

I wish it was legal to get rid of all amber/orange lights on the car.

It is a bit strange that the only place that isn't amber is the rear turn signals. That's why I like the amber rear turn signals so everything matches.
