    tail lights = unobtainium?

    Can you get tail lights for my car new anywhere? The clear part of the lens along the bottom is kinda sketchy looking (you can see a bit of cracking/"spiderwebbing" on the other side but none of it comes through the lens)



    Can't see em on RockAuto, or at least I'm not looking in the right spot. Are 88-91 all the same?

    You shouldn't have any trouble finding them aftermarket... those 4 years are all the same.

      You should be able to find reproduction tail lights without much hassle, but they may not have the little silver emblem in the middle.

        Now try finding tail lights for a Colony Park. That's the one I haven't figured out yet.

          only place I've ever seen tail lights at for panthers is everdrive.com and they charge arms, legs, first borns, and scalps for some of their parts.

                Pretty sure I have the only tail lights in a 60 mile radius (andymac) that aren't scratched to shit... Im damn proud of them, one of the only reasons I bought the car, the body sure wasn't in good shape.
