I haven’t had a Question of the Weekend for some time now, and I thought it was time to bring it back. I was thinking a lot about rear lamps on cars recently, as I almost ran into a car without any lamp illumination recently. With this incident, my thought process centered all about tail lamp design, and which design property is the best.
Tail Lamps – they are a necessary design evil to warn the car behind you that your are braking, or you are signaling your intent to turn. Some of the designs have been successful, while others are quite horrible. And the designers either try to accentuate them, or hide them completely.
American car makers seem to be stuck on all red tail lamps, with the units doing double duty as turn signal indicators and stop lamps. The European and Asian makers use an amber turn signal indicator separate from the stop indicators, or at least they used to. Tail Lamps are undergoing a design evolution currently, with LEDs as the preferred style now.
The question is this: What would you say is the best Tail Lamp design, and why do you think it is? Remember, if you are posting pictures, make sure your width=500.

well, I know I HATE the LED tail lights. with the blinker, Brake and Headlight on(as in, behing behind another motorist while he's trying to take a left turn at night) the damn things blind you.

Sequential tail lights would get my attention quicker. (And they're pretty). [youtube IdPD8KLPmPc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdPD8KLPmPc youtube]

No question at all.

I'm a sucker for all of those early 60's space ship designs like these on the 1963 Ford Thunderbird. Beautiful, but not very practical:

Simple in design, but both examples are probably the most recognizable tail lights in truck history. For that, they are the best two designs that I can think of.

I love the tail lights on a Saab 900. The pre-GM ones. Second gen Jettas are nice, too. As a kid, I loved the tail lights on Plymouth Volares and Aspens. No idea why, but I thought they were cool, as were the tail lights on the `80s C/D Body Sedan DeVilles/Fleetwoods.

By about 1962 Cadillac started to get tailfins RIGHT. Very sleek and I prefer them to the bullets.

My grandparents' had a New Yorker way back when and my mom said she wised it had the cool translucent lenses instead of its regular ole red ones.
<img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2610/4128250440_dc4959cb52_z.jpg?zz=1">-
Only the early '65 New Yorkers had the silver lenses. Apparently the defect rate from the supplier was so high that Chrysler gave up and went back to red lenses.

The '61 Dodge taillights were designed to be seen from the side and rear simultaneously at the same time.

nice.

Probably the 1952 Volvo PV444 tailights. I like amber turn signals that are separated from the tail lamps by some distance. I can't think of another car that go this quite like this, though maybe some more red reflector would have been nice.

It wasn't unusual for 1940s cars to have widely separated lights. On this 1949 Chrysler, the regular taillights were on the fender pods but the stop and backup lights were near the license plate.

'56 Cadillac. Simple and classy, and the left taillight flips up to reveal the gas cap. Hardly anybody knows this, so your gas will never be siphoned.

Here's a really odd but cool taillight treatment from a 1961 Meteor – a Canada-only variation of the '61 Ford.
<img src="http://i56.tinypic.com/6fpn2r.jpg" width="500/">
The US Ford for comparison.
<img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2160/3540728964_27c92fe20c.jpg" width="500/">-
I have to wonder, looking at that Meteor, if any preliminary sketches of a '61 Edsel design had been made at Ford Styling before the plug was pulled on Edsel. Because that sure looks a lot like what you would get if you set about to design an Edsel off the '61 Ford body.
-
Hard to say. The front styling of the 1961 Meteor was even odder than the rear, but it wasn't very Edsel-like.
<img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/124/341356987_09b53f5b0e_z.jpg?zz=1" width=500>-
hmmm, actually, on the other hand, that could be what you end up with if you took a design intended for Edsel with a strong central theme, and replaced the central styling element with that very horizontal piece in the middle that doesn't quite seem to match the rest of the grille . . .

This is the most awesome tail light design in the world.
Why? Because I designed it. (Really!)
<img src="http://www.petersoneurope.co.uk/products/images_products/oval/1223a_r.jpg">-
That is really, really, cool.
Just as a side note, a lot of trucking companies that went over to the L.E.D.'s as a higher vis/longer-life cost-cutting measure have started going back to incandescents, because the little rubber grommet-thingie that made the failure-prone incandescents easy to change also made the L.E.D.'s very easy to steal and therefore really expensive to replace.
Nobody is going to risk getting their head caved in for a three-dollar incandescent that nobody really wants anyway, but a couple of $40 L.E.D.'s might just get that crack-head his next fix for only a few seconds work.-
That's why the company I work for sells a lot of flange mount LED lights that get riveted on with theft-deterrent stainless-steel rings.
-
I've seen those for the round but never noticed them for the ovals, but it makes sense that if you don't need to change them that often you'd be able to rivet a cover on. Can you drill the rivet holes into the existing housing, or do you need to drill into the truck/trailer/whatever?
-
The flange mount lights already attach to the vehicle with screws or rivets. The anti-theft ring is just a steel plate that covers the plastic and makes it harder to pry it off.

But the most intriguing are the ones on the Range Rovers; it's laid out amber-on-red but the brake lamps light up red on the amber lens, and if I remember correctly the flashers are the red ones, yet they light up orange. So confusing!…

If you want confusing Land Rover tallights, look not further than the Freelander. The brake lights are the ones in the bumpers… Why?!

Funny you mention that; had a new Infiniti EX35 back out of a driveway at me nonchalantly. But actually, his signals were on, they were just in the bumper. Took me about as long to see them as saying "assho…"
