Tail light blackouts for T/A's?
 
Do they make any? Does anybody have pictures?

Yes they are at auto zone. They are special ordered for about $40. They look :pimp:

And you remove the "AVS" logos with rubbing compound.

For the taillights: AutoVentShade TailShade Blackouts for the 93-02 Pontiac Firebird, Part #33041
Available from most local parts stores, ..., for about $38-48 bucks, ..., & yes they simply 'snap on', no velcro.

Most people are now using the VHT Niteshades paint approach, as they think the covers are too "1980-ish". But they would be removable, ..., where the VHT Niteshades is a permanent thing.

this may be a dumb question, but do the lights still light up with these on??

VIP1 Feb 18, 2007 10:38 PM

Yes the lights are still visible, just not as bright.

I looked at these but didn't want stick on covers. So I opted to VHT my stock tail lights. Came out pretty good & only cost $20. I think it came out pretty good.

Looks good, what i really like is how you left your reverse lights, with 3% tint on my back glass i really can't afford any less visibility at night. how much time did you spend on yours and did you simply tape off reverse bulbs with masking tape?

Yes they do, but I got rear-ended twice after putting blackouts on my old Camaro. Whether those two accidents were related to the blackouts is up in the air, but I can say that they definitely didn't help.

I always loved the way they looked though. Didn't take them off till I sold the car.
