they look American, possibly old Mustanbd style (1980's). otherwise, there was a Caspian Capri, but i dont know what the tail lights looked like. they certainly ruined the front end of that model for the american market.

Not from any Capri I have ever seen. My guess is that they are off a late 60's or early 70's Jap car.

I agree, they look like japanese lights to me - these were a common modification to Perana's in South Africa - I've seen a few photo's of these cars over there with modified tail lights such as these ........... looks rubbish.

Look like RX3 or RX4 tail lights.

I'd guess Galant over RX3 as RX3's had round lenses

Just under 1/4 way down this page there is a blue coupe with a light coloured vinyl roof with what look to be those tail lights. Warning LOTS of images.
