Euro Camaros Does anyone have pics of an European Camaro? I heard the taillights are different, and are the headlights the same? Also can you buy those lights? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Euro Camaros have different bumpers (fog reflectors) and different side mirrors (break away).. the ones in France have a special button marked "If Germany invades PUSH".. this automaticly raises a white flag from the antenna mast.. I think buy law all French vehicles have this <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Euro Camaros OK here's the skinny so read up K.
Euro Camaro's DO have a different rear bumper BUT the fog light in the bumper (2ea 4in by 2in) ARE functional red FOG lights. You turn them on when your in dense fog so's to blind the **** out of the guy behind you.
The Lisence plate slot is a long narrow one for euro lisence plate.
The mirrors ARE guya$$ flat faced, airdamn, break aways. The front fenders have an added side maker that sticks out beyond belief.
They also have to run T/A seats due to better support.
Head lights are that of yours for the exception that some countries have peanut bulb's in the houseing to act as your parking lights.
The rear tail lights are simular to the above pic.
This all straight form the ***** mouth so to speak.
i've been stationed here for 2yrs now in England and I just got back a few hours ago from Rockingham Raceway were the Pontiac/American Car Club of Great Britian held an on track parade between heats (Rounds as they call it) and there were over a hundred American Muscle cars on hand and the Euro spec F-body and Vette's were on hand.
For a couple of years Vuaxhual (GM's England divsion) exported Camaro's here. I forget the years I BELIEVE it was 97-99 Not positive on that BUT I do know the above info is for 98 and above speck's.
If you realy want the tail lites just go to your dealer, talk to the sales manger and ask for the Germany Sales number in Germany and buy them through them. They'll run about the same as state side rear lites
Japan......As a military person I can't even take my car there let alone have I ever seen one there.
As for the event that I took part in today, in a week I should have all the pic's developed and I'll try to post or if you want email me and remind me and I'll send them to you direct.

Re: Euro Camaros I have to appologise for a remark that I said in the above post for I didnt take a good look at the lights I refered to as being "simular". How ever SSG---Z28 backs up my statement in the fact that what you all are considering "EURO Lights" are not Euro lights. So please call them as they are if they do come from Japan call them Japanes lights and also the ones sold on QTP web site are labled as Euro were in fact those should be labled Aztec or possiably Altiza (sp?) lights.
I DONT know it all so those that think I do, I dont, so sorry for that. As for what I said about Camaro's in Japan,all I can say is that I (I beigning the KEY) have never seen any there. If they were imported, which seeing how I know for sure they were here for a few years, then they are rare and I have yet to see one. But then again I dont live there I just go there on deployments.
So sorry if I offended, as it was put in a personal email sent to me "CAMARO FREEKS" .
That was not my intention. I just wanted to share the facts that I knew and clear up that when you say Euro your getting the same as you have.
