They'll fit, and work....But, you've either gotta hack up the harness or get one from a 91/92 T/A.

If you get the tail light wiring harness with your t/a lights its extremely easy... simply unplug your old harness from the connector near the drivers side taillight, plug in the new one, and your done! it literally took me about a half hour on my 91 bird..
