Those lights aren't correct for your bus.
And I don't think they are repro. Right, guys? That would be sooo great! |

They are dealer replacments; just like the dollar tailllights with the extra row of text. _________________ WANTED:

Yes, to confirm this - this is correct and probably what nlorntson meant too. _________________ How to Post Photos

The first post the guy is incorrect in thinking he needs dollar taillights when he has a January of '57 bus. He should have SBL 17 lights. I was posting for him or who ever needs the info.
Look at Kirbyland's post. _________________ '57 oval window deluxe,Agave green(L240) 2276cc w/51.5 IDA's
