Those round tail lights are from Fiat econoboxes from the '60's.
Or they got them off of eBay http://search.ebay.ca/search/search....fsop=32&fsoo=2

It's not the certification of lights but the tooling cost for the moulds. The moulds on complex plastic could run a quarter of a million dollars per side, which when spread over small volume lots would be prohibitively expensive.
