If you have the 85-90 TA taillights, your going to need to use the center piece from it to look right, if you have the 91-92 TA taillights, they dont use a center piece.

It will look "ok", but it looks better with the T/A center section so that the reflector at the bottom goes all the way across.
you should hold off and try and find a set of 91-92 Trans Am/GTA tail lights since they look sooooooo much nicer.

Only mod was changing out the turn signal sockets. The stock socket is too long (deep) and I just grabbed a pair of sockets from a spare tail light harness I had lying around.
The small running lights just have the bulbs removed and wiring tucked away.
