Does anyone have input As to this style of courtesy lamp on a 68 GS 400? it appears to be a smaller size then what I have seen or aware of. Looking for a replacement, lens used or reproduction. Thank you
I don’t have a coupe anymore for comparison, but that looks like the one in the rear sail panels. If so, it’s shared with 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme coupes but nothing else. It is not available in the free world. Duane reproduced the lenses a few years ago but I think those are all gone now, too. Patrick Edit: If it’s the ‘68 part I’m familiar with, it was part number 7731134. One is listed on the web-I don’t know anything about the seller. https://www.jrfranco.com/detail/1-N...-Supreme-Olds-Gm-7731134_f7horrnqvrqqtvr.html
Nick when you say "courtesy lamp", what part of the car are you referring to? You're talking about the interior lamps on the interior sail panel of the back seat I assume correct? At first I thought you meant the one on the center of the rear bumper but only 69's had that. I don't have a picture, but the style of the 69 courtesy interior sail panel courtesy lamp lens it typically smooth with a tri shield embossed in the center. Someone on here has a pic I am sure. Whether it is the same dimension as the 68 I cannot answer.
Here, this calls it a "dome light" but I think that is incorrect. https://www.opgi.com/interior-acces...NrZXqouijagDRsFjk5jwKJ534P_8RPYReuXPNAprP2rcM
I’m pretty sure that OP has the ‘68 (only) interior lights, on the rear sail panels. They are not offered by anyone (I once went to YearOne with pieces of one and conpared it to all the possibilities and none matched.) The ‘69 style does not fit. Duane’s repros were in my ‘68 GS400 coupe when I sold it. A friend found a pair in a ‘68 Cutlass Supreme.

Someone is making 3d printing reproduction lenses that fit the 68 only sail panel interior light. I bought them off eBay a few months ago. Haven’t seen them back on eBay since but the ones I bought were exact fit unlike the opgi/year one/every “68-72” lense listed for sale online..
