Can anybody walk me through the differences among fourth gen tail lights, or point me in the right direction to find the info myself? thanks in advance.

1993-1997 Trans AM (V8) - Grid Pattern
1993-1997 Firebird (V6) - No Lines
1998-2002 ALL (V6 & V8) - Honeycomb

I forget if the 1993-1997 Formula had Grid or Plain.

Should go without saying but i will anyway. Firebird/Trans Am tail lights and camaro tail lights are NOT interchangable.

very cool! thanks everyone.. I was under the impression the Camaro lights varied among trim packages but glad I learned the differences now. I guess mine still has the stock tails.. also appreciate the Pontiac info that was cool, now I'll be able to distinguish them better when I'm out and about. thanks again
