Default Which T/A tail lights are the best?

What taillights do you guys think are the best? I currently have the cleared out lt1 taillights and the honeycomb taillights in my garage, but can't decide on which taillights to put on. I was thinking of putting on the cleared lt1 taillight in order to have something "different" but then again I was thinking of just having the regular honeycombs.

i like the honey comb much better, i have the honey comb tinted alot with VHT night shades, but they arent blacked out. I think it looks good, but a little different than stock.

Depends on the car. If I had a white or silver T/A, then I would have white taillights.

I would like to see more pictures of export taillight though...

Clear as in plain red without the honeycomb correct?

I've always like the honeycomb taillights better since they first appeared in '98.

Those are the only euro taillights I have seen on a firebird. Does anyone else have them? I'm starting to like them more and more.
