I was wondering if anyone makes clear rear tail light lenses for the HQ sedan (not indicator)?
I saw some on ebay years ago that were genuine (in GM parts boxes), that were advertised as for the export model & used as reverse lights.
I was considering using a wagon rear bar & fitting a single sedan tail lamp housing mount & utilise it for reverse lamps. just a idea!
so any help would be great.. |

Hi, But it is the indicator section that would be clear on the export cars as this is the part that is the backup lamp. The stop/tail lamp is what flashes on the export cars and is red just like on our cars. I don't think you will find clear stop lenses as you would then need a red bulb.

Hi, I know what your saying, but I want to retain the HQ wagon tail light set up as is, but move the reverse function to the clear lenses in the modified wagon bar, it's just a mod I've been contemplating, I have seen HQ sedan bars used on wagons but I think they are overkill, the lenses I saw on ebay years ago, were basic rear lenses with no reflector, so Im guessing that they were the same as stop/tail, just clear?, I have no idea which country they were for otherwise Id be looking there...
thanks Kevin

you may also look at the side rear indicators, I had a HQ sedan that I removed the reflectors ,drilled holes in the base and mounted parker globes in them, very affective look at night.
