Talking Those with Camaro Export tail lights inside plz

Hey guys,

I'm picking up a set of export taillights for my 02 camaro from a guy in my local f body club.

I've got a question for those of you with them already installed on 98-02 camaros...

1. Do the plugs fit in it or are there modifications needed??
2. Does the turn signal piece reach or do you have to splice it to make it longer?


Any advice or tips will he appreciated.

Thanks

My friend with his 02 said they just bolted right in except for one bulb that needed a little trimming on the actual tail-light.

I had to trim 2 out of the 3 sockets.The bigger of the tabs was too small.Nothing a dremel couldn`t fix.If I remember right only the back up bulb would fit without modification.

There is one bulb you will not use, the small one, just pull the bulb and wrap it up with electrical tape. The wiring all fits.
