Pic Request: G5 Coupe Trunk on Coupe Cobalt

Ok guys I know that I have seen 2 pictures of people who have traded/bought a trunk off of a G5 and swapped it onto their Cobalt.One was black and one was yellow,both being coupes. Somone is doubting the possibility of this mod so I need some pics for proof. Thanks in advance for the help

It works fine, you just dont have reverse lights anymore, not saying that this is legal but it does work.

i guess, but then the g5 would look weird with circle back up lamps and rounded tail lights..either way sum 1 will have an awkward look

you could then mod the rear bumper to have the reverse lights on either side of the license plate, someone photoshop that... might look kinda cool.

Here is a pic of it, I think this is just a chop though becuase it was titled cobaltrearchoppy and the license plate is missing

the reverse lights on the G5s are off the 00-05 Monte Carlos. so they would fit behind the mesh on the back bumper of a cobalt
