Chrome Cab Marker Lights?

My old C20 needs some updated cab marker lights. They are faded and cracked. I've seen some other pickups with chrome on the backside of the lights, but I can't seem to find them anywhere! I've checked ebay (they have the smoked colored), LMC and Classic to no avail.

Anyone have them or know where to get them?

Thanks in advance...

Re: Chrome Cab Marker Lights?

That is what I am looking for - although these are too big. The roof platform is a 4" round - max.


Here is how mine looks:

If you have factory cab lights on a 69-72 you are stuck with what comes on those. The teardrop lights are for trucks that have no raised pods for lights.

You should be able to find new lenses for your truck,though. They'll make a big difference.

Re: Chrome Cab Marker Lights?

Hey guys,I have a 69 c30 with the flat puck style cab lights,they are faded almost clear.I dont remember where I saw this but I think the stepside reverse light lens fits.Also NAPA sells them cheap,maybe $5-6. With these lenses an amber bulb would be required.Think this is a good idea? I dont think the flat puck style are made anymore and maybe the teardrop style are.Good luck with yours. Muley
