I know many will disagree with me, but I've always liked the 96 tails, that was one of my fav features on my old car, especially since they were red/white. I say keep the 96 look

I think if you change to the 93 style taillights, the trunk lock hole won't line up. On the 93s, the lock is further to the right compared to the 96.

all the key hole should line up fine. there are members here that swap them from pre 96 to after 96-97 model tail lights. btw if you do buy the inner tail lights from a 93 you also have to buy the outer ones too so they''ll match up.

It doesn't line up. Indypwr uses his trunk release to open his trunk. Moving the key hole is necessary.

Right now you have way too many emblems on your car. You should take off the gs300.
