1970 Camaro Tailights...Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to french 1970 Camaro tailights into the step fenders on my truck. My question is what type of housing do these lights have on the Camaro? I found the lenses, but cannot locate any detail on the housings.

Any help or pics?

The bezels pictured above snap into white plastic buckets on the Camaro (each bucket holds two lenses). The white plastic buckets fasten/seal to the body, provide the reflector, and receive the light sockets. This style was used from 1970-1973.

Thanks peanut! That is what I wanted to know. Now, I wonder if you can buy the bucket and modify it to one light.....
