I kinda think the old ones were cooler, only because I have never seen them before. The GTA tail-lights just make it look more like a regular T/A

I like the GTA look better, but how are your signals and brake lights workin' now?? Or were the original yellow lights just reflectors?

I had to do some snipping....
The Firebirds / Formulas with the "Standard" Taillights had the following (on one side):
1 turn bulb (looks like 3, to give it that feel I guess)
1 reverse bulb
2 Stop bulbs/Nighttime bulbs
2 Small Night-time bulbs
Since the Turn socket was completely different than the GTA's, I just switched sockets with my old non-functional wiring harness with a working one, that will later fit into the "Turn Fitting".

In order from left to right:
Night-time/Brake - Night-time/Brake - Turn - Reverse and vise versa with the other side. Sorry to be confusing, if your at the next North jersey meet, I'll show ya ;-)

Old lights. The best thing about them is the dancing light show you can give to the rice boxes you beat - but your really need a stick to do it well.
flashers on, tap the brakes, push in clutch and move stick to reverse to turn on reverse lights. Used to love that **** with my 87 FB.

In 4th gens you cant engage reverse while the car is moving. But I love to give shows at stop lights with my friends late late late at night.

You can't engage reverse - but you can engage the reverse lights. Craig used to do it to tailgaters all the time
