High level brake light
 

Just had my 1990 judged.

I got dinged for the lens on the high level brake light.

I have no reason to believe it has been replaced.

Could a few 1990 z owners post up the writing (letters and numbers) from both the left and right side of the red HLBL lense?

I am looking for the raised numbers and letters. Also last 5 numbers of your VIN for bracketing purposes. My vin is 02124

Thanks, John :cheers:

if it matches the rest of the glass on the car it should be either 88 or 89. I haven't looked at my tail lights in a while and can't remember what it says

Kevin,

On the left (driver's side) of the high level stop light it should say DOT and 2 numbers.

On the right side it should say GUIDE a number and a letter.

Could you look and send me a PM with the information your last digits of your VIN and mileage on your car.

I have 2 z's both have the same lense. I believe there is an error in the new NCRS manual and I am looking to obtain additional information to contact NCRS.

Thanks, John :cheers:

My 91 built Nov 90: Lens says "DOT 86" on the left and "GUIDE 1Y" on the right.
My guess is the 86 related to the year the HMCSL was required, and the 1Y is the
die cavity number. How many dies ? Who knows.

Re: High level brake light
 

My 90 VIN 148 has "DOT 86" and "GUIDE 1Y" for what it is worth.
