OEM Evo tails aren't shaped the same, no fit. There are mock-Evo tails, like from ^^^^; plus, plenty other places (ex. Ebay...)

The EVO is a widebody of our car, so they won't fit with out widening the body... The tails are too wide to be installed with out some major body mods.

they are not the same shape, they will not fit in the stock fitment. if you really wanted to use them though, you would have to do a lot of body work. just get the evo7 style tails from RRM, youre better off doing that.

it ill mount flush ont he trunk side, but the fender side would be a little off, pretty much to make your own widebody to accomodate them, not worth it for just tailights

if u doing body work, and u want real evo tails, do something real different. try 6 or 6.5 tail lights. they go further up the rear quarter ( next to trunk ) like the "newest" mirage.
