Grid Style Export Tailights

Anyone know how many of these exist and is there anyway to get ahold of some? I love the look of these tailights and would really like to get ahold of some or atleast know if they're even in existence anymore. Thanks

Here is what they look like:



And this is a photoshop of how my car would look:

I did, but I think I may have been wrong. I can't quite tell the difference between the exports and the regular ones. I figured I had a set of pretty rare tail lights, but upon research I found out that all IROCs had the grid-style lights. What's the difference between those and the exports?

Car: 1985 IROC
Engine: 350 TPI (block was swapped)
Transmission: 700r4 w/corvette servo
Axle/Gears: no idea
export = yellow is on the outsides

I think that is ugly.. I wouldnt want to imagine what that would look like at night. Yellow tailight delete mod for the win.

<personal preference>

I actually have a set of the T/A export tailights. They are the same as the 85-90 Grid Style, but have the outer lense orange and are smoked. Not yet sure what I will use them on.

Re: Grid Style Export Tailights

I know this thread is pretty old, but i havent been on in a while and i figured i'd just share what i got. I dont have the grid style exports, just the single line version on my '85 iroc. Bought them off ebay a few years back from someone stationed in the military in japan. red lights are the top, bottom red is a reflector. and top reverse is blacked out. They take some getting used to but i like them mainly because they kinda match my SS, export lights too and export bumper.

Re: Grid Style Export Tailights

there was a guy on here a while ago selling stuff from Europe including 240km/h speedo's and the exported style tail lights. He has a professional webiste and everything he had listed is mint, however he also wanted outrageous prices.

search the classified ads, from last year.
