After Market Tail Lights

Has anyone ever found any after market tail lights for 1999 -2002 Firebirds?

One of my tail lights cracked and leaked and I was looking around at what my options were but couldn't find anything but factory lights.

Yes, I looked on E-Bay and there are occasionally some in good shape. I'm a little concerned that I'll end up with the same problem I have now and they're not exactly going at bargain prices.

I agree that those Euro Style tail lights would look like crap so I really didn't think anyone would be crazy enough to invest money in manufacturing them but I was hoping there were at least some other styling options.

Here's an idea (VERY rough rendering) of a possible aftermarket light that I think would look good on my car and is feasible from an engineering standpoint.

What do you think? Cool or blasphomy?

I like the 98-02 honeycomb style taillights personally. I've seen some 93-97 models use those and they look good.
