Default WTB: European tail lights

I'm looking for a set of European tail lights for a C4 Corvette. Any help, anybody? I need the whole package, lenses, housings, bulbs and wiring harness.

I just assumed that it required a housing change because there are 2 bulbs in each housing. I know the wiring harness needs to be changed. My parts catalog(cd) shows an "export" housing.

Yes you need housings too! I have on my car. You must also cut the white wire at base of steering column to get thrid brake light to work properly.

Can you give us the part #'s for all the parts? I thought there was a kit available from Mid Am or (?) to change the lens to the "Euro" look...
Isn't the euro style, orange and red as opposed to the red and red?
What is the difference in their regulations for tailights? I know the headlight regs are way superior to N. American regs. What is legal there is very illegal here.....

Mid Am had a kit in their catalog a few years back, but, it's no longer available. I've looked at just about all the suppliers of C4 parts and nobody has the listing anymore. I did talk to ACI, they can get the package, but I thought the price was kinda high at just over $500. I'll try to get the part numbers off my cd and list them.

If you look on the Corvette Central web site in the C5 area, they have a listing for European tail lights with pictures.
