I like the Cadillac tail lights. Were you able to just swap them out or did you have to modify them?

I put the backup lights in the bumper reflectors using led lights. I am not 100% satisfied with the looks of them but they will do for now. I have a set of lights which fit completely over the reflectors but I will need to cut out some of the material in order for them to recess into the bumper but I think they will look better. (see photo below)

Have you decided where to put your backup lights?

I still have to smoke the top tail lights to match the bottom and get rid of the blue dot.

The round brass colored object is a medal marking 50 years UAW and Walter Reuther

I lined the dashboard storage compartment with Craftsman tool box liner. It is not the flat kind of liner it has little bumps in it. It now keeps my GPS from sliding around in there when I am driving and it is not in use.

Boydie, I modified the cups on the back of the stock lights to accept the 59's. this way they were slightly recessed. for now my backup lights are under the bumper.

I have both lights, brake/turn and backup lights with blue dots. Originally I had both sets on the car, then I decided to paint 'em dark.
I don't need another pair but I'll let all four go for $40.00 plus the shipping, probably $6/10 USA. I originally paid $30.00 for two at a salvage yard (without the blue dots) but I am not a greedy person.

The blue dots look good in the backup lights too.

If interested I'll take paypal or Postal Money order. I can cash Canadian postal money orders at my USPS.

Blizzard;
How did you do the three bar grill? Modify the stock one, or buy one off the 'net? If you modified the stock, what did you do?
