The assembly line BU lights and some early service replacements had the engineering number silk screened on the rubber sheath covering the wires . Lense size was a early late thing. I believe tall was early short was late. Hope this helps. Bob G.

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?
