Default Pics of 97+ tails on pre-97 rear?

Curious how the 97+ taillights look on a pre-facelifted SC; I'm sure it is known that the 97+ sports rocker panels and a redesigned bumper where as '92-'96 does not.

Also, I'm assuming this conversion would be simple plug and play, and there would be no hyperblink issues, etc?

Thanks for the help!

Very nice, it gives it a more modern and aggressive look.

Don't like. 97+ wing makes the tails look good, without it, tails are ugly.

Best look for the SC imo is the 96 tails and 92 wing.

95 tails look horrible compared to 97. They have a bunch of different colored plastic pieces and when you have your parking light on, the stop light doesnt look aligned with it.

You kill me with some of the crap you come up with. They have the exact same lens's in the same places. LOL! The reverse lights are double stacked, that's it.

That's really your opinion. Many people like the 95-96 tails, and they actually do look good.

I think I would have to go with 92 wing with 95 tails cleared bottom.
