May be different where you live, but I see good used ones at the wreckers all the time.

Yeah, I have as well. I was able to salvage mine after all, but I'll be keeping the info in case I break one, which, knowing me....
The junk yards that have trucks these years are quite a ways from me though.

1980/83 F100 & 1980/86 F150/350 Styleside taillamps are the same, ditto 1980/86 Bronco.

The lenses were only furnished with the bodies, not available by themselves.

I used the '87 - '91 tail lights in my '85. The insides of the newer ones are reflective, as in chromed plastic. Which leads to more light out the back. The body lines do not match up quite the same, but if you did not know, you could not tell.
I have some pictures here; https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...build-log.html


And there are a few JY's near here that have some of our trucks. I can't recall the names right now, but they are in Emerson and Cartersville.
