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.

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.

Re: cadillac taillights
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. |
