Side marker reflector/light
Has anyone illuminated side marker reflectors on their '68-69? I would like to make mine light up like the '70-72. Wondering if anyone has done this and what and where did they find the parts.

Re: Side marker reflector/light
Are you talking about the hood reflector?
If so, yes someone posted about the project 3 or 4 years ago.

Re: Side marker reflector/light
The hood reflectors on my 71 do not light up ( a mod I remember, liked and want to do). I was thinking he was referring to the bed reflectors. Which are lights on my 71. I do not know how the earlier models are done (plus I have side molding so I cannot really say regarding fitment) but it would seem that the lights could be mounted in place of the reflectors, splicing in new wires and bulb connectors to the existing tail light wires (I think they are the little 195/196 “spade” light bulbs but not sure. I can look later if needed.
