WANTED 64 Fury courtesy / dome light lens

[500duster]

I'm looking for a 64 Fury courtesy / dome light lens. My car has 2 lights inside the car on the sail panels. The lens is silver in the center and has a silver ring around the outside edge. I broke one lens while changing my headliner. If anyone has one or a pair for sale or knows if these are reproduced please contact me through this site. thanks

They are available new! ( Repopped)

I would like to know the link for the 64 style repops.

Where are they available from? I've only been able to find the 1965 and newer.

The repopped ones are the "newer" style. The early build '64 cars had a different, fancier style. My car has those - it was built in December '63. Here's a pic of that style - which sounds like what you're looking for. The one in the pic is an NOS one (not mine, though). As far as I know, they aren't repopped. I found a decent set on ebay once, but they don't come up often.

The one in your picture is exactly what I need. I have found the newer lens and bezels several places but I'm not sure if I can use those with the the metal housings that I currently have.

The other (later) style won't work with your housings. I have a set of those, too. The earlier style that came on your car mounts to the sail panel with plastic posts that are molded into the lens. The later style - with the metal trim ring - mounts to the sail panel with screws. Those screw holes don't line up with anything in the housing of the earlier style behind the sail panel. To use the later style, I think you'd have to switch to a matching set of housings - which I have seen for sale before. I think the later style is more common, so it may be possible to find good used housings from a parts car. It would just be Belvedere hardtops and Furys that have them. Savoys just have a dome light in the roof, I believe. Belvedere sedans probably just have a roof dome light, too, but I'm not sure. It's too bad that earlier style is so hard to find. They're a lot more stylish than the later style.

Thanks for the info 64BEL. I kind of thought the newer lenses and bezels would not work with my housings. The newer lenses and bezels look to be the same as the courtesy lights in the rear side panels of my 67 Coronet convertible and those housings are definitely different.
