I don't like the ones that are in/on the window either. Looks much cleaner with it in the spoiler.

I Agree..........I love the third brake light of the 86.......looks alot better than on the inside of the window! (I also like it because I have an 86 iroc)

i actually like the one inside the window, makes it easy to mod. plus i don't like anything hanging off the spoiler, or stuck to the outside of the car, like the '86.

I like them because when I see a Camaro..that's one of the things I look for to tell what year it is. It's the little things on these cars that matter.....I do like the 91-92 third brake lights better though because it easier to clean my back window....nothing is in the way to hit...

It's actually a Vinyl sticker. I just found a font I liked, and printed in backwards on the back side of the sticker backing. Then cut it out is exacto knife and stuck it on there. I fixing to redo it though, with a more permanent solution. I am going to make a stencil and then just paint it on. Right now, as you can see in the picture, its starting to fall apart and red is showing through where it shouldn't.
