    Did a little tinkering with my tail lights today. I have a 65 chev p/u and I noticed the tail lights are the same as my van. I ordered a couple of bezals for the truck to see if they would work on my van. With a little modification they fit. I kind of messed up the left side (first try) but the right came out good. I am going to order another and try again.  If any body is interested I will take a few pics as I make it fit and post them.

    If I recall from earlier threads, the truck bezels are deeper than the van ones and that's the modification that has to be done, or cut the pocket they fit into so the truck ones fit?? something like that, let us know how you did it.
