There are blackout kits and special paint available to tint tail lights. I would think window film would be too dark and maybe too difficult depending on the shape of the lense.
Consider checking other cars in your area. There may be a "legal limit" for this.
go to autobadges.com ...they have the "tail light tint" you are referring to...im getting it myself for my 03' gt...they have a fog light tint kit, a 3rd brake light tint kit, headlights, tail lights, and the rear side markers..in 50% tint or blackout tint...im getting the 50 % smoked look for mine...its under the decal or vinyl tab on their website...good luck... silstangchic
yoiu can also paint your taillights.. I have done it on my mustang and they came outgreat ive also done it on many other cars m all you need to do is bet some black paint and clearcoat and mix the paints together . e
You can also check on eBay. I got vinyl blackouts for the headlights and taillights all for $40, shipped. Look around and you'll find what you are looking for.

For our body styles, you will need to get a spray on tint. That is the best/only decent way to do it for 96-98 taillights because the roundness of the taillights.
I went to a hobby store and got the spray tint you use for model cars. It was five bucks and I did my trucks tails black, but you can just put on a few coats to make them smoked, it works good just clean them really well first and it will stick.
