Default Firebird Tail lights

Are there any good looking Firebird tail lights... I have a 99 WS6 and I absolutely love the cars look exept for one thing the tail lights... I dont really like the stupid honeycomb desing and I want to change them. Do any of you guys have any aftermarket ones? or any pics or links to a site on where to buy them...

there are no aftermarket taillights, so the only option is LT1 taillights with the horizontal lines across them, which can also be cleared.....

either way, the stock LS1 tails look 100x better to me.

In my opinion, the stock taillights look amazing. Much better than the LT1 version and a million times better than the altezzas!

You could get blackouts, or have them tinted.

No camaro lights won't fit....totally different shape and size. Sadly there are no known aftermarket taillights for the firebird/TAs. Only options should you choose are: blackouts, lt1 lights, or even 93-97 v6 firebird lights..no pattern in them.
