Default Putting 06-08 Tails on my 01

I want to put 06-08 tails on my 01 SS simply because they are beautiful and will look awesome being bright red across the back. I have read there is some small gap issue? I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of these on any 00-05's? Also if there was anything else I should know before I go through on these...

I used to have them on my 04 SS. No problem at with a gap. I have since switched to LEDS.

Wow! Those look awesome. Thanks for posting the pics! I really love the look of the 06-08's when you're following them.

just an fyi, there was no 08 monte, they stopped in 07 =]

there is a part of the 06-07 tail light that is a little different but they were still easy to put on a 6th gen

I was actually wondering if this was possible, but thought it would have been just dumb to ask. Glad to know they will fit! looks like Im going to be investing in some 07' tail lights!
