Re: cadillac taillights

Wish I had pics to show you but I just got my harness and buckets at the junkyard today, havnt even started making templates yet. im doing Cadillac's 94-96 style, they seem a little rarer than the 89-93.

Re: cadillac taillights

This is coincidental! I saw the first one I've ever seen Sunday at a car show at Sands Chevrolet in Surprise, AZ (northwest suburb of Phoenix). It was a very professional job and looked great. Tailgate was welded, roll pan and Cadillac tail lights. The color was much like the atomic orange used on recent Vettes. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture.

Re: cadillac taillights

Hey guys, here's a 67 that I installed the older caddy lights in. It's a step side and installed in the stack pocket, they are LED so depth of pocket was not a problem.

Wow those look great. Can I ask where you sourced the LED light kit from? I'm looking to put the same lights on my stepside. Thanks!

Re: cadillac taillights

Those tail lights were purchased from custom classics in Texas. They are great to work with and delivered a great product. You can search for LED Cadillac tail lights on google and they should be one of the hits on the first page. Hope this helps.

Lucas Bee Hives! Nice!

Never seen them used like that.

I have a set of Lucas 488s with amber lenses for the front signals on my '67 VW.
