Formula with T/A tail lights...

One of my accounts are putting T-tops on a customers Firebird. And he has a 90 T/A now with no roof....lol

He told me to come out and see what I want off of it before he junks the parts car. I don't really need anything, but I was thinking about putting the T/A taillights on my Formula.......

Would that look ood? are better?
Whats YOUR option????

You'd have to mod em a little , but i think that if ya tinted em a little darker they would look great

the only ones you need to mod are the 91 - 92 trans am / gta tailights i thought, and thats just the wiring, they should bolt right up...

so i belive the 90 taillights everything will bolt right up and work fine, since they also have the three piece deisgn..

i was thinking about changing to trans am / gta tailights, but then changed my mind.. they look good though..

They will bolt in place fine, but the wiring harness is different. The easiest thing to do would be get the tail lights and harness from the T/A, and splice it into your exising harness. The 85-90 TA/GTA tail lights use 4 large bulbs on each side, as well as all 82-84 Firebird tail lights. But the 85-92 Formula and Firebird tails use some (not sure how many) smaller bulbs for the turn signals and reverse lights, and some large bulbs for the brake/tail lights.
