OK, lets see if i can explain this in a manner easy to understand. Guidex was the original manufacturer of the lenses, and your lenses ARE original pieces, but that red "bumpy" rectangle within the center portion with the "Guidex" logo at the bottom has been added into the light... just as the clear backup light was originally added into this rectangular hole in every other standard 69 taillight in the world. What someone likely did was take a piece of the outer portion of a standard light (*compare the texture of your "backup light delete" panels to the texture of the outer 2 sections of taillight... i bet its identical.) You will also note that this "bumpy" part has no part numbers or Guidex lettering, only the smooth surrounding portion that is still a part of the original light, prior to the removal of the clear backup light section. Someone did a nice job of the install, but i guarantee they never built any 69 Camaros from the factory (COPO or otherwise) with "backup light delete" taillights. If your shifter ball is missing the "R" and there are only 2 rods on the bottom your shifter, with no gears inside for reverse, I MIGHT believe the taillights are original. Make sense?

This weekend, The Best friend of the Original Owner(He was there at time of purchase even!) and the Second owner is coming to Town from Florida. I will discuss this matter for if anyone would know, it would be this guy. he knows everything else about the Car, and if there was an "Allnighter" that resulted in these lenses being Created, He will know! There are so many other things one would do to a Car, why just that?? By the way, The Ball is missing the "R" as well as the other 4 gears!! Thanks for your optimistic Review Joe!
