Will the 97-99 red/clear tail light fit on 96 rear ??

my local bodyshop messed up with my rear lights when they fixed it and accidentally put 96 instead of 97. I want to get the 97-99 RED/CLEARS tail lights from ebay, but will they fit on a 96 rear trunk ? thanks

no. 95/96 tails are shaped differently than 97-99.

after my rear got totaled, they converted it to a 1996 rear instead of 1997. The front side is still the same, but they just changed the back to 1996.

the maxima was initially my brothers car until he got a new audi. He was pretty pissed off too when he told me about it, but my dad didnt want to take it back to the shop.

MaxRB8 had them on his '95 car before he sold it. Check out his Cardomain site.
