Don't know.
I can tell you that you do NOT want those side markers.

Listing states:
"98-02 Pontiac Firebird"
because they are actually for the FRONT on a 98-02, and will not fit in the back of a 93-97.

front pieces for the newer cars resemble the rear markers for the 93-97's huh
he has them listed as rear bumper tho

and on the pic they are shown on the rear quarter panel of the blue car

not saying your wrong... but you may want to look at it again

I just went out and spent like $10 on limo tint, shaved off the numbers of my marker lights with a single-edged razor blade, and put the tint on... It's been on for two years, can't tell its tint unless you are super close and there is no bubbling or falling off...

cool i may just have to try that.. my car is black too
btw.. your tail lights/covers look really good on that z
ill try and take some pics of my ride here soon an post em been paintin calipers today trying to slick it up a bit

yea i think ill have to just do some tint on mine these ppl are mad...... i can't believe they are selling those marker's that high... if any thing id figure the turn signals would be much more expensive... who would think that tiny piece of plastic would be twice as much

You don't have to believe me.
But when you get them, and they are wrong, be sure to come on back and apologize.
Myself and others have bought them. They are not for 93-97 rear.
But good luck with that.

There is also this stuff called VHT Tintspray... My cousin got it done to his cobra.. It basically is an aerosol paint that you put on your lights. It blacks them out without stopping the light from showing through. Looks pretty sweet since it doesnt add too much onto your car. I kinda want it done to all of my lights seeing how turn signal covers never fit right

rite or wrong for my car I'd rather bash my own nutz with a spiked ball bat than pay that price for them.

and btw meant no offense you should have said you ordered em or something and they were wrong.. was just going by the picture and words of the product listed and on that it said "rear" and picture showed the quarter pannel

in any case rite or wrong if it makes u feel better you have my appology


ok ne ways the tint spray yes i have seen it but does it work ok on the red and yellow colors of the plastic? just wondering if id need to purchase clear ones?

Just did my rear corners with vht niteshades and came out great. Threw on a few coats of niteshade then finished up with a few heavy coats of clear. Wetsanded and buffed to a nice shine.
