Parking Light Question

I have a 1986 Camaro 305 4BBL basic sport coupe (not an IROC or Z-28 or anything). I recently broke the right side parking light. I found a guy on craigslist that was parting out a 1988 IROC and he had both parking lights for 10 bucks. I bought them but saw they had clear lenses so I bought some amber bulbs. I went to install them and found out they are too big and don't fit. I thought that all third gens would be the same. Attached is a pic of my left one (the amber one on the left) vs the 1988 one.


My question is what years would have the lights like mine and also are they only on the base models and not the IROCs? I looked on Ebay to get some new ones but they all look like the shape of the one that doesn't fit. Thanks!

The '85 and up Base Coupes had the same front bumper as all 82-84 Camaro's.

Re: Parking Light Question

So the lights from any '82-'92 base model should fit mine? Also, if I want new ones, do you know where to get them? Thanks!
