Same, but I agree it does look good and unique from the other model years. At least for a NA spec one.

I had no idea the repeaters were not factory. They sure look like the SAAB lights, identical to my Toyota Cavalier ones.

Yeah, that's the first time I've ever seen them factory outside of a Euro spec car. Ahh yes, the Toyota Cavalier. That also has the amber turn signals on the taillights iirc?

I'm in Ontario and I've seen quite a few with them over the years...

Interesting, I didn't know that. It makes sense though. They have to use those parts for something right? Kinda like how UPS used a bunch of Alero headlights for some of their package cars lol. I wonder why they didn't do that with the U.S. spec ones too though? I think it looks cool.
