I believe that I have some NOS Lakewood back up kits still left in my inventory of NOS parts.  If anyone is interested, please send me a e mail off list and I will let you know what I have.  thanks Paul in CT

  Well,  I've had this in the back of my mind (means I've not taken ANY 
  action) for a couple of years now, a way to "invent" backups where the 
  reflector would normally go.  Potential problems that come to mind are:  I 
  don't know if there is space in the tailgate for a housing to fit.  Wiring 
  would have to be run into the tailgate in some fashion that it would not be 
  subject to breakage.  Where am I going to find a U shaped chrome piece and a 
  lens that would look good in that spot?

  Attachments (if any) are scanned with anti-virus software.
