Christian Witt's meticulous attention to detail is truly exceptional. Once again, he has produced one of the most precise replacement parts for your K2000 build. The tail light housings come pre-painted in matte black, with chrome-painted chambers designed to enhance light reflection. Installation is a breeze, requiring no tools, thanks to 3M tape on each side and two magnets in the center, ensuring a snug fit in its designated place. The taillight lens cover is equipped with the Firebird emblem pre-applied. Intricate details visible through the clear lens are achieved using a water slide decal, and the lens itself is subtly tinted transparent black. The installation is straightforward, as it effortlessly snaps into the housing. To enhance the authenticity of the colors when illuminated, brake and fog light tape is employed.
Fanhome has undoubtedly crafted the most visually appealing and accurate 1982 Pontiac Firebird model available in the market. However, a notable issue arises as KITT was a Trans Am, featuring distinct trim options, particularly in the taillights. Unlike the Fanhome model, which offers only 3 light chambers, the 1982-1984 Firebird taillights had 4 chambers, a crucial detail for authenticity. Moreover, the housing provided by Fanhome is too small, resulting in the loss of an iconic aspect of the car's appearance. This upgrade addresses the discrepancy by enabling the complete replacement of the taillight housing. You have the option to integrate a pre-wired LED into an existing brake light on each side to activate the 4th light, available for separate purchase from platforms such as Etsy, Temu, eBay, AliExpress, etc. Alternatively, you can choose to leave the 4th light slot blank. The decision is entirely yours.
While this tail light upgrade is compatible with the blackout lens supplied by Fanhome, it is recommended to use a new blackout lens without mounting holes and screws for a smoother, more polished finish. You can either craft your own from 1mm anthracite acrylic and tint it with common window tint or await the release of laser-cut blackouts, which will be available for separate purchase in July 2024 at a cost of $8.

Crafted from a specialized UV resin blend incorporating SIRAYA Blu, SIRAYA Smokey Black ABS-Like Resin, and SUNLU ABS-Like Gray, these components showcase a unique composition. The prints are skillfully engineered to possess flexibility, enabling them to endure a fall from a 4-5 foot height without breaking or shattering upon impact with a hard surface.
