Layson's is make the chrome bezel that fits over the red lens (I hope).  
I think the combo of lens and bezel with be about $150 per side.  There 
is a 62-65 member who might be convinced to make the chrome bezel in 
plastic and have it plastic chromed. Would anyone really notice the 
difference and who cares on a non-100 point car?

The rear courtesy lights on the '65 Convertible- I'm looking for those, 
also.  The plastic lens is available from an A-Body.  I think I saw them 
with Layson's or Crusin Moons - I think about it and let you know.  My 
problem is the pot metal  the lens goes into.  I've got five of them and 
only one of them is worth using without rechroming.  I imagine that 
would be $50 to $100 each although I have no experience with that kind 
of work.
