Maybe a set of GTS Blackouts would satisfy him.

i'm pretty sure blackouts are illegal in PA, but i'm not sure...pretty much everything you can do appearance wise is illegal here...he really likes the TA lights though

If you want Firebird taillights, sell the Camaro and buy a Firebird. The bodies are really that different.
