    Are the trucks tail light lens the same as a vans of the same years?
    Mine are intact but not sure for how long. I found a bunch on the web for sale, but they all say "truck". They "look" the same but I want to make sure.
    They seem to run about $7.00 or so. Seems reasonable.
    Thanks guys!

    Got it!! I even ordered them with blue dots. Smile
    Now, what about front parking light (yellow) bullet lens?? They look close to my '56 Chevy tail lights but I don't think red would be allowed, even
    Thanks!!!!

    Awesome!!!
    Ordered clear as I think they will look cooler, and I have yellow bulbs anyway.
    Thanks!!!

    Got them both and installed. I got the blue dot rears. They look great. I also put in LED 1157's while I was at it. I've been looking at LED headlights as well but mine seem to be pretty bright. I will have to find a screaming deal before I pull that trigger.
    I'm playing around with some ideas on a 3rd brake light. This is where the fun begins. Smile (LOVE the custom, and fabrication part.) Smile
    Thanks gents!!

    Looking good! I have those blue dot tail lights as well. I was told that the blue dot will reflect when headlights shine on it. But I dont know cause I am driving. I actually put in Red LED's so the lens shows dark red rather than light red. A motorcycle cop told me about that... It does look better darker. I also want the LED front headlights but the cost is crazy!
    I will be watching for your fabricated 3rd brake light in the future. Keep up the work it will be fantastic. How about some pictures too. Is your knuck running?

    Interesting about the red LED's.
    The 3rd light on my '97 Chevy truck is an interesting thought but it would have to be manicured to fit. But something like that would be cool and the side white lights could be back ups.
    Yeah, the Knuck is running.

    That is so cool! I wish I had a nice old bike. But I do have a little 62 Honda C110 scooter I am fixing up Laughing

    Here is the picture of my blue dot rear tail light; It does shine deeper red with the added red LED. Tail light lens for '64 GMC. Blue_d10

    So here are the tail lights with the red LED's and those blue dot rear tail lenses.
    This is at high noon bright outside... you can see the red LEDs make the lenses darker.
    I just noticed the blue dot does show a little even in the day.
