97-99 brake on top, turning signal on bottom (can be cleared out)
95-96 brake on bottom, turning signal on top (cannot be cleared out)

if you have a 97-99 you can go to maximadriver.com --> how2 --> cosmetics --> red/clear
if you have a 95-96 you have to find all clears (very hard to find) and have them painted .. if you want DavidL is doing a group deal for the 95-96 red/clears ... he does a fantastic job

You can't get all clears at Nopionline.com, those are discontinued and you will most likely have your order canceled if you try. Just like the Pacesetter STS is on Nopi but no available. Also, 95/96 tails CAN be cleared out, same way that 97-99's can. Do a search.

i'm was under the impression that they couldn't be cleared out because the amber in the tail light is the plastic and not just an insert ... hmmmm

There have been a few threads saying that the plastic can be pulled out just like the other lights. hmm, now I'm doubting myself, see what you've done? I'll check it out.

The 96 and 97 tails aren't the same. The 95 and 96 can't be pulled out, the 97-99 can be. This is simple stuff, CMK (common maxima knowledge)
