The later service ones have tags and two seperate wires instead of the numbers on the sheath covering the wires .tthere was also another service assembly that had the wires covered with a piece of tubing but not completly sealed off like the assembly line parts this other also had a tag and no lettering on the tube. This goes for 67 and 68 parts for those working on those cars. Also the plug is a different size were it goes into the trunk through the side of the trunk drop . 67 and 68 would have C7 and or C8 on the sheath.Hope this helps.Bob G On Saturday, January 7, 2006, at 12:22 AM, fordmond (AT) swbell (DOT) net wrote: > Thanks Bob, > > So over the counter parts later on would Not have the white > #'s....correct? > I just got a set in"NOS" they said.The #'s on 1 of the housings is C7 > 15A 509 A with FoMoCo Logo and No White letters on the wires. > The red Pigtail is a litte bit Different too. > I have a bunch of used factory style BU lights assy's on hand and the > red plug part is a bit bigger with T M C letters on them.Any ideas on > that? > JW > ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Gaines" <bgaines (AT) kc (DOT) rr.com> > To: <fordmond (AT) swbell (DOT) net> > Cc: <shelbymustang (AT) carmemories (DOT) com> > Sent: Friday, January 06, 2006 11:59 PM > Subject: Re: Back up lights ?1969 > > >> The assembly line BU lights and some early service replacements had >> the engineering number silk screened on the rubber sheath covering the >> wires .
