I don't think they fit b/c of the trunk.

not a direct fit, no. Theoretically you could do it with some modification, but I wouldn't suggest it.

I believe the outers will bolt up, but the inners aren't the same. I think you have to change to a 97-99 trunk lid to get everything to match up.

97-99 Tail lights ( outer ones) fit on a 95-96 with NO modifications.. the only difference is the bottome part of the lights BEVEL OUT, so it's not flush when the bottom of the lights meet the bumper..

The Inner tails of a 97-99 will NOT fit the 95-96. the Trunk has to be swapped.
