1969 Charger Reverse Light Installation

[68n69 Charger]

Do the reverse light fixtures "snap in" to the hole? Mine seem to be hanging up on some little bump outs around the fixture. I am about ready to use dead blow to get it in....am I crazy????

In a word....yes.

The light 'fixtures' are screwed in place to the bumper.

The lens are held in place by a snap ring as mentioned above by @davek

On a 69 charger the lites do not attach to the bumper.They are attached to the lower rear valance

68-70 never had lights attached to the bumpers.

Thanks fellas. It seems that prior to me getting this car, the rear valance must have been replaced. The holes, behind the valance was just hitting enough to keep the lights from sitting flush...a little dremel goes a long way ;)
