I believe 1998 was the only year they offered this. If you want to get a pair of tinted side views, you will have to order them for a 98, or you other option is E-bay! There was a guy selling the tinted sidewiew mirrors buy the hundreds about a month or two ago.
good luck

1998 and some very early 99 Trans Am's got the blue tint mirrors. I love the way they look on my car.

no pics for you, but they look PERFECT, like from a factory, and the car was owned by a guy previously who she says kept it completely stock and in a garage. from the old pics of the car I believe her, but since then she modded it a bit but not the mirrors to my knowledge.

reduce brightness of headlights (from behind) so its easier to judge distance at night without the irritation....much like auto dimming rearview mirrors and so-so
