rear turn signal and taillight availability and compability

I don't see any remanufactured lamps w/ the wiring harness piece anyplace. If I find one, will 64, 65 and 66 all work for my 65 custom cab? I'm seen a few older NOS ones on Ebay, but nothing my year....thanks for the help guys!

1964/66 F100/250 2WD Styleside & 1966 Bronco use the same lamp bodies/lenses/bezels.

The lenses & bezels have been reproduced.

Is the bezel is the chrome piece that frames the lens? Nobody makes those wiring pieces or the piece the bulbs fit in?

The bezels are anodized aluminum and were used on Custom Cabs, and 1966/77 Bronco's. They have been reproduced, but AFAIK, no one is reproducing the 1964/66 taillight bodies.

I spent two days at the Supernats in Knoxville, and saw quite a few used lamps for sale.

I think I have some spares in my parts box. Send me a PM and I'll look. You need one or both sides (the housings, not the lenses or trim)?

Is there any way to switch to led's? I know you can get 1157 led's but with stock lenses they don't quite look right. Any suggestions without spending the big bucks that Dakota Digital wants?
