Reverse lights

Does anyone know if the 1968 f850 came with factory reverse lights installed? Where would the switch be on the manual transmission? Any help would be great. Thank you

I believe they were required to have reverse lights, the switch should be on the top cover, lefthand side just behind the shifter if it's a T18 transmission.

Same tail lamps with encompassed backup lamp lenses as F100/1000 Cab & Chassis, F100/350 Flareside pickups.

Backup lamps mandated by the US Gov't for all trucks, Bronco's and Econolines beginning in 1967.
