Taillights on a Dark Green 95

I got a 95 Dark Green z28. The back tail lights seem to have some condensation in them and alittle water. Should I go with just replacing them with factory ones again, or should I see about getting come clear "euro" style taillights. I should also mention that I am going to be replacing (waiting for them to arrive) the front bumper lights and side markers with clear lights.

If you take off the tail lamps, I think you'll be surprised how simple they actually are. I believe you can somehow take them apart and resilicone them to prevent the condensation.

I will definately look at and try that first. But as for a plan B, which do you think is a better look?

I don't like the euro lights at all. I'd see if you can fix what you have before replacing anyway. I was really surprised how lightweight and simple they are considering Eckler's sells the stock tail lamps for something like $95 each.

on a green car the only thing I would do is tint the red lenses, not black them out but tint them to be darker, the best way to do it is get that headlight tint off ebay. I have tried testors model spray and Vht and they both suck.

Although the tint is sort of a pain because you have to strech it to get it on with out wrinkles.

Clear tails would not look good on a green car, they look great on red or white or silver cars but not much else.
