Please help ID this car...bonneville?
We had a burglar the other night and I got some good shots of his car. I could use some help from someone who knows Pontiac Bonnevilles well. I think this is a green Pontiac Bonneville with the gold wheels. I need help in confirming that it is indeed a Pontiac Bonneville, and deciding the trim level and year model.
Things I'm pretty sure of: Pontiac Bonneville, Green, Gold wheel insets. Four door. License plate on front. Emblem in front grill. Car has a third brake light in back window. It also appears to have a side turning signal just behind the front wheel (Can anyone confirm that bonnevilles have this? I cannot tell from internet pics).
Here is the side turn signal in question:
3rd brake light
front lic plate with emblem in grill
side views, note wheels
Note mirrors:
Sheriff is investigating as well, but any help I can give them in ID of the car will speed things up.........they do have murders/more serious crimes to investigate, so I understand a burglary isnt top priority. But, I want to get this guy. Thanks for any help in advance.

I'm thinking something like this.........
but unsure about the side turn signal behind the front wheel. Does anyone know if any bonnevilles have that turn signal/light behind the front wheel?
Thanks for your opinions. I appreciate it.

youre right..........the 3rd brake light is high mounted. I just looked at the video.
I'll take a look at the late 90'* 3 and 5 series to see if I can match the mirrors. These definitely come from the door, not up by the sidepost.
