Where were they used, besides the side marker lights?

Do you have the correct hardware for a 70 Cuda tail light installation?

I found these on your website, P/N SC3165, but couldn't find the nuts or wire retainers. Are the these parts available?

I believe they were used on the side markers, 70-71 and tailights for 72-74.

FY1TA, you are correct! Sorry for the incorrect info Snoopy. I just looked at my original 70 Cuda(SPD 3/21/70)tailight nuts and they are a nut with a spinning washer.
They LOOK identical to the nuts that secures the plate in the trunk for the muffler s-clamp(exhaust hanger tall nut).

back ordered till late Oct 09
these , but should be yellow zinc di-chromate -
ps- I have a few dozen of the nuts as shown in dull clear zinc. replacements in yellow zinc (as they were on my 1970 challenger) will not be avail until late this year to early winter .

I just found my 70 Cuda taillights, moving sucks, and here is a picture of the original nuts. A06 SPD & Hamtramck build.
