Amber.. Clear lenes come from 70 Chargers, they fit & look cool but they are not original...

OK so I'm wrong, never saw a Challenger with clear lights back in the day... But saw allot of Chargers with them..
Then there's factory promo photos...

here's the clear lens with "J" cast into it, legit Challenger piece?
I would say yes, since both clear and amber are listed in the parts book.

I too had been told that the CLEAR markers were EXPORT only....as to the validity of said statement, I plead the Fifth...

My Sept 69 built car has cler lens with amber bulbs, replacements are both clear and amber but most seem to be amber including the complete assemblies from BEA. What's correct? I've had this car since 1978, I'm pretty sure these are original parts on the car.
If your looking to replace the clear lenses with NEW CLEAR lenses, Mike Ross at www.BEAparts.com has them, just not listed on his site, you'll have to call him to order....which reminds me, I'd like to order a set as well, before their gone...
Mike

1970 and 71 Challengers and 70 Chargers all use the same parklamp lenses and assemblies.I was told that cars built for export use clear lenses and US built use amber lenses. John.
