Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe those lenses are interchangeable between most of the '80s-early '90s cars. I know they're the same between my Daytonas and Chargers.

True, but the Charger and Daytona ones are just a reflector, the Omni ones are an actual light.

I think this particular part might fit vehicles beyond FWD chassis as well.

Mike grab the part # off it and do a search for one. I'll bet a few of them are out there at dealers. Common part because they broke a lot (as you know). Probably NS1, so the dealer can ask whatever they want for the part. Usually if it's been in inventory for a long time they will be anxious to get rid of it. I bought several injector & starter harnesses this way. Paid less than half retail shipped.

Mopar part # is 5207780. Ebay has a few of them (aftermarket though). Some under $7 shipped.

+1. I got several items through the dealer for my GLHS restoration.

Found them for $3.90 each. Actually I am in need of these for my GLHS, I forgot to get them and now that the car is painted the originals look really ratty.

Did you find any at the dealer?

Mike I ran a search on partsvoice.com and couldn't find any except at a place called Valley Vintage Parts. They wanted $20 a piece for the lens. I'm going to order two of the ones off ebay and see how they look.

Here are the side marker lights I got off Ebay for $3.90 each. They don't have the factory PN on them, but who cares, does anyone in our hobby really care about that? They otherwise look just like the originals.

On my 85 SC they are attached by two screws, doesn't look there are any screws on these, how did you attach them?

Well these were for a four door L-body, not 2 door, so maybe there is a difference. I used the factory nuts to attach them to the plastic studs that were on the lights.

Thanks for posting that Scott. Since my car is 100% stock, I'll be buying the factory original ones.....NOT.

Ordering my Chinese replacement lenses right now!

Wow...that's a great price on them!

Next time I do paint/body work on my car, I'd like to put in 70 'Cuda marker lights.....they are generally pretty expensive though as I don't think anyone knocks off the buckets that go in the sheetmetal..??
