need opera lamp cover from 79 Olds 98

Hi. I have a 1979 Oldsmobile Regency 98. 350, gas.
I lost the plastic cover from one of the "opera lamps" just behind the rear door (passenger side) It cracked/broke off & is gone. Here is a picture and a picture of the other side for comparison. Any ideas where i can find a replacement? or what other years/models would have the same type of light? Thanks in advance for your help. I need at least the plastic piece, maybe also the screw that holds it in at the bottom, its very rusted. been looking for a while, haven't had any luck so far

if you can track it down, let me know! it is the passenger side one. I think they are side specific.

jcdynamic88 I'm still interested in the part you have. I got mixed up when there were replies from 2 different people on my thread (my mistake!). Let me know how I can pay you. thank you.

Hi! I have to revive this thread as the very same thing happend to me last weekend.
Out for a ride with my 79 Olds 98 Regency and suddenly off goes the cover/lens of the opera light on the passenger side.

It would be great if anyone could tell me where I can find replacement lenses.
Preferably a pair, if possible.

Thanks in advance!
