    do these tail lights ever exist for my 87 cabby?





    notice it says 88thru91 but when i do find a 87 application it pertains to the coupe and the 4 door only! have not found that could fit the 87 cabby, does this mean i have to mod it to fit or just OEM? any help por favor

    no; cabrio tails don't have that 50/50 horizontal split.

      You don't want those for your car. Homosexual e30 owners have them on their cars.

                Tail lights are all the same whether it be coupe, sedan or cabrio. The only difference is between early model (86-88) and late model (89-91).

                      Look:

                      From introduction of the E30 until 1987, the non-vert cars had Small rear Taillights. In 1988, they transitioned to the later style of taillight, 1988-1991(2/3/4 for you fucking convertible/touring folks) all had larger taillights. Convertibles are an exception, I think they changed to plastic bumpers/large taillights in 1991. Your car needs taillights made up to 1987.

                      Small Taillights, up to 1987:


                      Large Taillights, 1988+:

                        DONT BUY THEM. i have seen them on every gay e30 in my area (yes the e30's with seventeen inch chrome wheels)

                        either smoke the ones you have or paint them all red

                              Woohoo, good for you. Who shoved a fish hook up your pee hole bro?

                              91 also saw late model tails on cabbies. I was referring to the whole production year. Especially seeing as how nothing about the cabby tails remaining small, and the OP is asking about a cabby.
