Does anyone know what exactly are the differences in headlight bezels(doors) on firebirds. I own a 91 firebird, i need to repalce the headlight door on the drivers side. i need to know if say an 87 headlight door will fit in there. I really need to know today. Thanks guys

They're different. The 91-92 headlight doors are "shorter" front-to-back. When I bolted my 91 nose up to the stock 83 headlights, the doors rubbed the nose. I just got some 91's to replace them with which should solve the problem.
