I always wanted to put the LS1 honeycombs on my 96 Formy, but totalled it and got the whole LS1 car instead. Everyone has preferences, mine is for the honeycomb, it looks bolder.

Thumbs up

Here's my car I recently purchased. I have severe honeycomb envy, nothing is better than driving behind a honeycomb backside, makes the cars so unique on the roads. But any $$$ I do have aren't going to taillights, they're going to maintenance then performance.

-took em in a dark spot in the mall, kinda hard to see


-with the leds on...my current desktop


IMHO it looks unique without looking overboard or ricey, and its free so its win-win for me.

Honeycomb!

I remember the first time I saw a LS1 T/A in 98. We were waiting in line behind one at Popeye's and I couldn't stop staring at the honeycombs and how I thought that they were the coolest tailights I had EVER seen on any car.

...also, there is so much Firebird heritage that goes along with the Honeycomb look.

Yea I was thinking of putting some honeycombs in place of my LT1 Tailight lights. I still like the LT1 ones, but the honeycombs just look amazing.

I think the clear mod looks great too. Is it hard to do. And do you have to have red bulbs with the clear mod? I am confused about it.

Reason is to pass the year inspection and not give the police any reason to harass/fined for not having correct color on the turning lights.

If that was no issue i would never changed.

I think nice, clean LT1 Taillights are super sexy, especially at night, the honeycombs have them beat a bit in the day because the red is so much more bright, its also getting harder and harder to see some good looking LT1's but i love them
