Ebay, and be prepared to spend $300+ for tail lights.
As awesome as they are, damn they are expensive. Wish someone would aftermarket them.

Honeycomb are in Firebirds, he has a Camaro (or so his name and avy leads me to believe).

I was thinking Honeycomb too, but it didn't add up.

I think he's talking about the "candy corns", not acorns

They're also known as the export tails.

Ebay.co.uk gets them Semi-often, just have to ask them if they ship to the US... Which will be some $$$.
