"NEW" 69-70 Charger Back-up Light Assembly

"NEW" 69-70 Charger Back-up Light Assembly now available.  Since there is no way we can reproduce the lens because it's glass, we might make it out of clear acrylic like other lenses as long as we don't get beat up for it later not being absolutely correct.  Hey wait a minute, is that the same rubber boot used on the hood mounted turn signal indicators?  Now there's a good discussion.

Ya know Mike, I think you are correct with that boot assumption.  I haven't had my back up lights out for god knows how long.  Looks like you found another use for them.   :cheers:

No way IMO. I just spent a half year scanning E-bay every day for one of those fu***ng fragile glasses.

Perhaps a tip : make the glasses available separate cuz some of us still have good or really saveable housings but a set of new glasses would'nt hurt. If I would not just have paid 60 bucks for a pair of dang glass lenses I would be up front to get a pair...

NOS is nice, turbo's are neat, but when it comes to Mopars, there's no need to cheat...

To add misery to the glass lenses. there are two different types. There is the style with the face raised up about a 1/4" beyond the retainer ring and another almost identical lense that has a face that is totally flat (maybe Roadrunner?). Both have the same pattern on the backside, so you have to get close to spot the difference.
