  • What year did the tinted tail lights debut?

    I always thought the tinted tail lights debuted in 1986, because I've never seen them on 84s or 85s, but after browsing Z's on craigslist I've seen a bunch of 85 turbos with them on.... Was it common for people to change to the tinted tails, or did late 85 models have them or ?????

    If someone could clear this up for me that'd be great, thank you!

    85-86 turbos had them, not 84.

            Never seen a AE with the stock black\grey middle bar or smoked lenses. Would be interested to see one.

              Hmm. sorry guys guess I was wrong.

              My AE has them, but they must not be OEM.

                    your 86T has them, and since an 86T is not an AE.... try again.

                          If 86t's came with MutantZ overfenders, I would be in a junkyard right now with a sawzall in the rain.
