Default 1974 bubble tail lights

Hi everyone,

I would like to convert tail lights to bubble shaped on my 1974 vette.

Does anyone have any experience or suggestion how this can be done?

Thanks,

Gregor

Yes, it is a split bumper. It is a one yer only design and I cannot find a special set of bubble lights to be sold or more information on solutions regarding adaptations needed to fit bubble lights suitable for other production years.

Thanks,
Gregor

You can buy the kit and put bolts thru it and tighten from inside

Ok, thanks. I was thinking maybe there is an easier solution, not needing the drilling of the bumper or attaching extra rings.

Thanks,
Gregor
