OK.....

I know this may look rice BUT..... us F-bodys have to do some work to get the Euro required amber turn signal and all....

My 98 Bird is currently using the reverse lith housing for my ambers turn signals.....

So I want to know is 98-02 Camaro rear light housings are the same size as T/A's.... the link below is why

http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/index ... rodID=1872

If they fit then those lites would free up my reverse lites which we all know we need bad to back up those big A$$'s on our bird's .....
currently *UK setup* I have aftermarket fog's mounted below the ga tank that act as my reverse lites and the reverse are my amber turn lites.

So if anyone knows if the fit is the same or different please let me know

You do not have to worry about the yellow light in Germany.

Well, I got a special permit for the red tail lights, based on the fact that there are no yellow tail lights (well, at least none after 98 ;) ) that would fit, and that rebuilding the whole tail would be an unacceptable amount of work ... :) (and that's even for a German registration, not US forces active duty)
