Default LX tail lights on a GT?

Just wondering if '88 LX tail lights will fit on a GT from the same year. Thanks.

That would be the first thing I would do! Its all opinion but I think the GT tailights are hideous looking and I know "most" agree with me on that one. And YES, im 99% positive that they will fit.

Thanks for the replies folks. Yeah, I like the LX lights much better. Got a line on a set for $50. I'll post pics after/if I get them, this weekend. Thanks again.

last time i needed my tail light replaced, i went to a junkyard. they had way more of the 87 lx type than my 83 type, and mine was only 15$ so i would suggest checking out a local junkyard/pull apart
