Side Marker Lights

The true 73 side markers had rubber boots attached to the rubber mounting pad. Sadly, these are NLA from most sources, (at least as of 4 months ago).

If you are looking for 73 specific be aware of this as the 70-72 did NOT have the rubber boot covering the backs of the reflectors or the wiring.

Also keep in mind that the marker lights from the early cars will have different connections than the '73.

I have a spare set (not in that good condition) that I tried to use on my '71 and the connectors (although both bullet type connectors) were different and would require a little re-wiring at the light to make work.

I replaced my front side marker light in my '75 Z about three years ago. I only replaced the reflector/socket portion with an early Z unit that didn't have the rubber boot housing.

I mearly pulled out what I needed and inserted it into my existing boot. It fit perfectly and mounted in the fender correctly.

I do remember having to futz with the wiring connection a bit but it wasn't difficult and I have no problems with it so far.
