WTB - 78 D88 - Tail Light Trim

I am looking to find 78 Delta 88 Tail Light trim. The chrome part...

I have a set of never used, new in box lenses that I am dying to put on. I don't need the whole assembly (although I might purchase a whole left side/driver's side.)

Any leads, lemme know...

Have you tried Ebay or Car-part.com?

I have a '79, but I can't remember if they are the same . . .

78 & 79 lens trim is the same. The lenses are different. Will work!

They aren't that hard to get off. And if I remember right, the bezel is just screwed on from the back side.

Off and on for about the last four years. I was able to score a new installed original set of tail light lenses on eBay for like $40 if I remember, and that was shipped.

Problem I have is that I refuse to put these nice clean shiny lenses on and then trim them with the lens trim I have on the car. It's cracked and peeling. Looks bad.

And to add insult to injury, the only ones I have seen for the Left side of the car are either beat to hell like mine, or $100+ for a used maybe decent trim piece or even the light assembly. To that, I say no no no, not in my house. Not when bought the pass side for $15 to the door.

Thanks for the suggestion though. About once a day hit eBay looking. Makes my fiance laugh.

You have a PM with a link to some poor pictures of my spare taillight. I'm not sure, but I think I also gave you access to my OCA Dallas folder, since you like the big girls . . .
