Yeah. They're all selling 60-66 back up lenses because they don't really give a Fxxx. Most parts buyers now weren't alive when these trucks were current, so they have no clue. Logistically simpler to make a ''universal'' part for two seperate ranges of trucks.
If I have time tomorrow, I'll shoot a picture of my known OEM 1968 back up lens, with the Fresnel lens. My old lens is cracked inside from decades of AZ Solar radiation -- but I never throw anything out.
