Count me in for the lenses, but only if they look exactly like the photoshop.

I already have a set of LT1 tails so if this is it, I'm not worried.

I'd be in also assuming it was the photoshopped clears and they looked OEM.
I have a spare drivers side that you could experiment on. I'd also have to know somebody figured out how to seperate oem ls1 housings at home.

What would be complete badass is clear honeycomb's that look just like OEM with LED's inside...with the option of sequential control. FTW!

This.

If there is any type of LED/sequential/etc lighting I am 100% without a doubt out. You couldn't pay me to put them on my car.

100% factory like functional with factory tail lights in them that look like the pic. Lets not get over board.

Besides, if Mark just makes the cover it won't have any effect on the way the lights react. You could do the sequential or LED by yourself.

Wow. Those clear ones look really good! Id consider a set.
Off topic, but has anybody ever seen the tailights of the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile? If not, Google image that. You might be surprised. Lol

I've got the clear lens material, I just don't know how to get the original lens off the taillight. It will come off with heating like the Camaro headlights?

You would have to use an lt1 tail for the entire thing.

The LT1 TA tail lights can have the red "film" removed if you separate it. I think it's a pretty cool look, but has to be done on the right car with matching features.

Only thing I don't like about LT1 tails how they don't have the 2 lights like the newer style tails near the filler panel.

That being said...assuming LT1 tails can be made to look like LS1 tails?

The LT1's have the same number of lights as the honeycombs. Or did you mean the reverse lights?

If you guys want other "factory" options perhaps you'd like the exports? They look good in my opinion and they're subtle and unique!

Reverse lights. The round clear ones. Didn't know what they were for.
