cargo lights

On the Scab cab I just bought, it has a cargo light that I haven't seen. The others I've had are small and plastic, but this one is larger, glass and metal. Is it from an earlier ford? The hole is a pretty clean cut, like factory but I think this light is mounted upside down. I Want to reuse it but it needs the new foam backing, so I need to know what I'm looking for.

sweet, thanks. the bigger one is much better than the smaller ones, they should have kept it. Now, to find a gasket. Hopefully LMC has them.

I've got the same light ion my Crew Cab. Yes, DC has the gasket in stock. According to Number Dummy that light is actually a back-up light off an earlier model Ford car...early '70s T-bird, if I recall.

1967/72 F100/350 cargo lamp. SAME as 1964/65 Thunderbird backup lamp! But, the cargo lamp mounting gasket is not the same as the Bird.
