Euro Tail Lights..... From a european..

Hey guys, read the other post, though with it getting quite long I thought I'd start a new one.

This is my 'Roc in the UK, looks pretty much the same as a US spec if you ask me... The very fact that the Camaro tail lights had any amber in them meant in reality they were European lights;



Only thing I am missing to be 'legal' over here are High Density Rear Fog Lights, I've seen some convert one of the reversing lights into a fog light and it seems to work well.

The fourth gen Camaro's 93-97 have all red tail lights for the US market.
The European market models had an amber section in the tail lights. The new 98+ Camaro's have the amber section for both the European and Domestic markets.
