There may be a difference, but Ames Performance sells a backup light assembly they say is applicable for 64 to 66 full size, except the 64 GP.

I had a 66 2+2 restored 20 years ago and have a photo album of the restoration. I'm not sure if the ones I have can help, but you can message me and see if I have anything that helps.

I'm going to say that has the clear film. Not that it's easy to tell other than I can see scratches and scuffs in the decal, but they do not affect the lettering.

I have a 72 GP and I purchased mine from the parts place. I sprayed it with a cheap gun from Harbor Freight (less than 20 bucks.) It is an oil based product that does not need the clear coat. I...

I have seen the emissions decal on both sides in photos on the web, but mostly on the driver's side. I think I like it better on that side, so I'll probably move it when I paint the radiator support...

72 Grand Prix Coolant decal

I've scoured photos of 72 GP engine compartments off and on for months and haven't seen any with this decal. Even those that are described as survivor cars don't seem to have it. That being said, it...

I agree with necdb3. My 72 has the small hook that goes into the slot in the bumper. Also, my jack base and jack mechanism are blue. That jack reminds of the one I had with my 62 Grand Prix.
