Default LS1 to LT1 Trans Am taillight swap questions….

Is it possible to put LT1 Trans Am taillights on an LS1 car while still retaining the LS1 center piece that says “Trans Am” on it? Or do you have to use the blank LT1 piece? Anyone done this swap or have any idea about the center piece?

I asked this question a long time ago and never really got an answer as I recall. I’ve recently been thinking about doing this swap again.

Any input? Thanks. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Why anybody would want to do this is beyond me.....i think the LT1 taillights are <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" /> !!! On second thought, i know why you want to do it.....you want people to think you have an LT1 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I thought that the LT1 center section might be a bit bigger and the lights a bit smaller.

Really I like both styles of lights. Just not sure which one's I like better. I think part of the reason I like the LT1 lights is that they were only used on the V8 cars. The LS1 lights are the same from base V6 to WS6. I guess I just like the fact I don't see the LT1 style too often around my parts....

As a side note, I think the LS1 Camaro tail lights are worlds better looking than the LT1 style. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
