Whole assembly, two of them. I see OGTS sells the the repro for $70
Hoping to find some in excellent shape, I will most likely buy the repro
Aren’t the 73 GT tail lights the same?
I might have some pretty nice ones in a box. If somebody else doesn’t have any I will have to check at my grandparents house.

The Manta taillight bases have studs and the GT ones don't.. The Manta studs can be easily accessed through the trunk to install nuts and the GT's attach with screws.

Any idea if I buy the reproductions from ogts will they be direct fit in GT?
OGTS says that they fit Mantas and Late 73 Gts.

To be model correct late 73 GT yes, but judging by pics they should fit all years
I would assume so. I have seen many earlier Gts with these late lens. And OGTS says that the housings are all the same for all Gts.
I don't like the '73 GT tail lights and plan to replace mine. Make me an offer and I'll remove the ones from my car and send them to you. I don't see anything wrong with the ones I have, I just don't care for the look. I think I also have a couple spares. I can send some pics tonight if you're interested.
My GT was produced in January of 73, so I wouldn't call that late 73. The different lights started in mid 73 production.

I'm not sure if you've seen this, but OGTS has an all-red outer tail light lens that still keeps the 73 internal reflector and twin light bulbs while giving it a nice look. Something to think about before proceeding into changing out the rear lights for a pre-73 system. I ordered and recieved 4 of them and they are the usual high quality made OGTS part.....
I already have a full set of NOS GT tail lights and reverse lights. So the switch will happen. Thanks though.

I had another member PM me yesterday offering some up and he has some real nice ones after seeing pics. Considering he went through the effort of digging them out and photographing them I will give them a shot. Thanks though!
He has 8 posts since 2002. Gotta love this forum!
