I like them but there illegal in some states.

In florida according to my cops handbook, that they cannot give you a ticket if there visable from 1000 feet away, or somthing like that.

Well not an IROC (it's a Z) and not quit BLACK (it's charcoal Mettalic) BUT maybe this helps some I run them on my original '82 Z28 / Later RS tailights, BUT when I switch to my IROC grid tailights I don't run them Just my .02$

like a velco type thing..one piece goes on the lights & the other piece on the blackout & you just have to line them up & push them on
