They come from Japan.
They were produced only for 93-95 Camaros going to Japan. In 96 Japan got the new tail lights that we got in 97.
They are no longer available.
The last used set I saw for sale, the guy was asking over $400, he still hasn't sold them and now says he will consider $900 for the set.
Good luck

Re: where can i find these tail lights????? 1badZ28........they are the GM Export tail lights...("Candy Corns").....Just like Ratio said, extremly rare now because they were manufactured by GM, not second teared out to another manufacture like most parts, once they stopped making them, that was it for supply.....and the supply is going fast.......I was lucky to find the Left hand one in Cincinatti (one of the last), the Right one just got here from Japan, which I was extremly lucky to find also...........the pic of the left one on the box is mine.....here is the set, about to go on my car!!......

Re: where can i find these tail lights????? I know about supply-and-demand, which would let him demand just about any price he wants, but... He can't get rid of them at $400 so he ups the price to $900. Great Math! I bet someone will pay it too.

Re: where can i find these tail lights????? Yeah...
A big thread broke out over at LS1.com. Literally dozens of folks saw the pics of the tail lights, most of them had never seen them before. All the sudden everyone was begging for a set and ready to pay good money... he jumped in the thread and said that he still had his set but since demand was so great, he could stand to hold on to them longer, but would consider $900.
Can't blame him I guess. The info on the lights got out and everyone came begging.
Oh well.

Re: where can i find these tail lights????? well my friend knows someone with a wrecked 96 and it has the same tail lights.. (I made him take a pic) It was blasted in the front so the back is still mint.
I don't really know what they are worth.. I wouldn't charge 800 dollars but the shipping is gonna be expensive from japan to here.
