parking lamp lenses
 
Hi Doug here,I have recently been searching out new parking lamp lenses for my 56 Pontiac. I have found NOS or repros' to be very expensive or not available. Recently I discovered that 1968 Dodge Dart pl lense works. The outer lip needs to be trimmed and re-angle the screw holes on the lense. Hope this helps anyone with a similar project. I think they look better than the original.

I have to agree...a great look:mwink:
the chrome bullets in the dart lenses were made to go with the bullets on the bumpers and grill used in the 50s cars:thumbup:
