I need a tail light lense for a 1994 HR

While on my Grand Western North America Tour and Shakedown Journey I broke the passenger side tail light lens while trying to do a short back up. The tow dolly jackknifed and the elevated bumper on my toad nailed the tail light lens. Does anyone know where I can purchase a new or used lens for a 33’ Class A 1994 Holiday Rambler Vacationer?

    Not exactly true...My tail light lenses are from a Lincoln Navigator. However OEMs will NOT fit. The housings would have to be modified for the OEMs to work. My lenses are for a Navigator but are made by TYC. The back side of the lens housing is just different enough the OEM will not work. If you remove the housing, they have all the info stamped on the back side....Dennis


    The poster has a 1994 HR, and I have a 1993 HR. When I went to replace my broken running/brake lights, I bought replacements at NAPA. I suspect HR didn't go to specialty suppliers until later, perhaps after they were bought by Monaco.
  • I believe I found my lens on eBay, at least the DOT numbers match. It wasn't horribly expensive so I went ahead and ordered it. Thanks to all y'all for suggesting eBay. I guess I'm showing my age because eBay's saved my bacon on so many different projects over the years I should've just looked there first!

  • Go outside and write down the DOT number from the broken lens and do a web search. Should turn up several sources for new ones.
