| I added four courtesy door lights recently. My OCC had them blocked off but I discovered the wiring plug when I did my front speakers. Dick   Before  | |

What's that an old "bug" in the garage?

| Mike,
Your pictures are why I have them on mine now. My front ones were blue but had an opaque white and red lens. Fred told me they were off an Impala. Then when I got the rears in Tan I like the lenses a lot more. I painted the rear tan bezel blue but not happy with the match. Have SEM can on the way.
Then I found a set with the fluted clear and red lens in Tan. Swapped the lenses and bingo. No wonder my wife thinks I waste money on the Olds.

Dick Hahahaha, sounds like one of my projects! I put three different rear-view mirrors on my '89 OCC before I was happy with the final look (1990 Deville compass mirror..haha). | |

COL I'll nab you a set next time I get a yarding hall pass from Misty. Very easy job, and there are usually a few Roady sedans and Fleetwoods at the local yards. | |

| Thanks Mike.
My navy SEM paint came a while ago. Perfect match, I pulled the light part way out. Took out the lens and bulb. Masked the wires and painted. Popped it back together and now they match.
At least as far as I can tell in a dark garage. The power went out here for some reason. Computer and MiFi on Battery. I will shoot some photos in natural light when it quits raining.
The four horns a a must. I'll bet they sound good.
My next project is figuring out how to wire up the corner lights. Mine did not have the option but I have them in now but not wired in.

| If FLasharoo passes on the rear lights, I'll take 'em. Same as the others 2 in front, none in the back. Funny part is the other two OCC I had, had 4. | |
