xxjoeyxxeb Posted March 11, 2006 Share #1 Posted March 11, 2006 I love how some old cars have a purplish tint to their lights. Did they just replace the white bulb with a purple bulb? Anyone got this on their car? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/19180-purple-tailights/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted March 11, 2006 Share #2 Posted March 11, 2006 I think what you are seeing is the "blue dot" jeweled lens insert that was popular in the old days. You have to drill a hole in the lens right in front of the bulb, then snap in the insert.Be aware that in many states these inserts may not be legal, but they are ignored when used on older cars which don't see much time on the street.
