67 Belvedere 1 Tailight lens

[Belvedere One]

Looking at options for replacing the lenses and looking for feedback or experiences with the ones that Laysons sells. I'm not that interested in NOS at roughly 300 plus per side as what I typically find out there, the car just doesn't warrant high $$ parts.

Start a wanted thread. There are probably dozens for sale here.

66 and 67 lenses are kind of hard to find and always have been.

90% of the used ones are either broken or burned through by the bulb.

Repros are available but are pricey and can be of questionable quality if you're not careful.

The Bel I IIRC, does not have the chrome trim like all the others do, and is therefore a bit harder to find.
(that might be 66 only, though)

That's what I've found over the past 30 some years.

...oh, try to find 67 wagon lenses.....yep, they're different.

Totally agree on all points. Mine are cracked and I've just reached the point that I dont care to look at them any longer and thought the ones from Laysons would be a relatively inexpensive upgrade. I remember many years ago there was place that made some sets but were of very poor quality and would tend sag when left in the hot sun.

Keep an eye out I just sold a perfect Nos one in the box for $110.
