losh Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Forgive me if this has been asked before. I searched and could not find anything... My car is a 1997 Cutlass Supreme SL sedan. I have these tails: Would like to swap for these (from an '89 sedan): Any way I could use the '89 tails? Would they hook right up and fit? If not, what would I have to do to get them on?

jrcuttymann Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 go to your local junkyard, find 89 sedan remove taillight and locate a 97 sedan and see if it fits if it does than purchase said 89 taillights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94 olds vert Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Take a look at this thread. Yeah I'm pretty sure you can swap them. Oh and by the way 1990 was the first year for the sedan. http://www.w-body.com/showthread.php/51387-Buying-another-Cutlass-Supreme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchin Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 For what it's worth - I swapped 88/89 tails onto my 95 Grand Prix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losh Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I like the Olds logo in the center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchin Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I'd say you could just replicate the results and put a sticker on your stock bulbs, but I'm pretty sure there's laws regarding altering your lights/indicators - weather you would actually be harassed over this is anyone's guess.

94 olds vert Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I personally like the older ones better. Far more detail in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losh Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I was gonna smoke my stockers but kinda scared myself away from it. Heard of guys getting a fix-it-or-ticket for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminaPower92 Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I've smoked tails dark. Checked out my white 92 Lumina. I've never had a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losh Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 After seeing your Lumina I might have to just smoke 'em. That looks kickass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1988PhantomFE3 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I switched our CS '94 tail light set up to the CS '89 set up, everything bolted right in but they were extremely close to eachother to begin with. Here's a thought for you...because the chrome on the center Olds Rocket logo wore off alittle everytime we washed the car, I bought some older (NOS) style fender emblems and stuck em over the center piece of our tail lights. They're gold on the edge, but that doesn't really bother me. If it's just the logo you like, stick one on there. LOL Best of luck to you!
