I picked these up from chrisfrom_nj today, and might I say what a pain in the ass it was to install! But it was well worth it, and personally I like it alot better. Gimme your opinions!

OLD!

NEW!

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
