I'm looking to replace the lens for the front marker lights on my 64 malibu. I was told the Beaumont's are clear, and will fit my car. I dont care for the amber colored lens. Where can i find the clear ones?

As far as I know, knowone is repopping much of anything for Beaumonts. There are a few scripts and stuff out there but I think the only way you're going to find the lenses you want is to find a nice used pair and that ain't gonna be easy. I've owned 3 Beaumonts over the years (68, 69, and a 66) and the Beaumont specific stuff is as rare as hens teeth for the most part.

Red is correct. It took me 4 years to find a set of clear front turn signal lenses for my 68.

I bought new clear lenses from http://www.peninsularestoration.com/
they had them hanging on the wall.

Thanks for the tip - NPD does list both amber and clear lenses for 64 and 67 Chevelle parking lamp lenses. I have been told that the Chevelle & Beaumont front lenses were interchangeable.
Anybody know if the 67 lenses will work on a 66?

I picked up a great tip at:

www.dtstainless.com (http://www.dtstainless.com)

Apparently the rear backup assembly for a 66 Chevelle is interchangeable with the front marker/signal lights on a 66 beaumont with slight modification (I'm guessing the mod would be to convert from single element bulb to a two-element bulb?).

That's good news!

EDIT: It must be the '67 Chevelle back up lamp. The '66 bears no resemblance...

Bumping an old thread (I know). Wanting to make sure I'm ordering the correct part for the front bumper parking lenses for my 65. P/N C-2589-100A* is what I want right?

Poop! NPD doesn't carry the 65 clear lens. I want them so bad.
