Re: Cargo light

They were a regular option and are fairly common.

Re: Cargo light

A lot of trucks have them, popular option.

I have had several, none have leaked.

Re: Cargo light

I personally like them as it has a nice look to them but it's hard to find a good supplier of quality lens covers.

I've never seen one like that, it's pretty neat. I have the outside-mounted one, which I have plans to make it an integrated third brake light

Re: Cargo light

RPO C92 must be one of the rarest options ....right up there with the manual throttle control.

I have only ever seen one and the spid was gone so I could not tell if it was factory or dealer installed.

There was a previous thread on the combo lite a while back.

Re: Cargo light

I have three of those, one nice one and two that I can make another nice one out of...thanks to a fellow board member here.

I also agree, one of the rarest options...along with the bed side toolbox and manual throttle control as 80sport mentioned.

Re: Cargo light

you see my options sheet. my truck is a one owner and i think the man ordered it that way. its a Bonanza (no headliner or carpet on the door panels), but it has power windows and locks and tilt and cruise. 454 reg fuel in a 1/2 ton. the combo light is a rare option. works great. i had it a while before I knew what it was . kind of flipped down on accident

Re: Cargo light

just exactly how rare are these combo lights ? I found one in a 77 camper special on my trip to vegas. I HAD to grab it and for 4 bucks it was a steal. I wish I would have grabbed the tach dash as well.
