Hey - i have a pair of Chrome APC brand Altezza tails for my 3rd gen 98 blazer (i guess 98 is 3rd gen)
i think these fit on all blazers from 97 to 2003
these suckers were recieved in christmas of 2002 - they were purchased from crutchfield (i got em from there because i knew of apc's track record at that time for defective manufactured tails that had cracks on them - these are actually the 4th pair that i recieved - i had to send back 3 replacements free of charge to me to get ones that were finally free of cracks)
When i recieved - i sealed them with clear caulk - aparatently i missed a spot - about a year after i got em - a small amount of water got in - and cracked the top right corner of the drivers side taillight.
It was a small crack - but water did get in.
I just recently purchased a set of replacement taillights because the apc ones were chrome - and chrome didn't look right on my dark red blazer (in my opinion) - so i got some carbon fiber taillights.
When i got the CF tails - i put some high end lexan crystal clear caulk to seal them suckers up.
when i got the tails done for my blaze and put them in. I then did some caulking on the taillight that was cracked - by smashing it into the crack then peeling off the dried stuff off the top so you can't see the caulk other then that is in the crack.
i can not guarentee that it is 100% water tight - but it is still pretty good.
The crack is only about a half an inch long - and its not that bad - i can get better photo's of the crack if you want.
other than that - the two are in pretty good shape.
a lil dusty - but good for some cheap taillights.
