TC and regular Tbird corner lights, is there a difference?

I had always thought/been told that the TC and the regular Tbird used the same corner lamps. Is this true?
The reason I ask is there's some guy on Ebay selling clear corners for TC's only. Says he'll also make them for regular Tbirds also, as if there's a difference?
Anyone want to clear this up for me so I know what I can use next time I'm at the junkyard.

AFAIK... The only lights that are different are the INNER marker lights, other than that they are all the same.

This is the link to his auction. For me, it's not a question of who makes them, but why is this seller trying to mislead people into thinking the outer marker lights are different between the TC and regular Tbird?

That's a good question. He says he also has clear corners for non Turbo Coupes and then for an example, refers you to a pic of a Turbo Coupe. If there is no misleading intended, it is at best, very confusing.

I really like the looks of the clear corners, that's why the acution caught my attention. I might just have to take one of my junk ones and try to figure out how they do that.
