My friend just finished a restoration on a 66 SD convert (original 327/4 speed car, kinda cool.....) and they used GTO backup lights. I wouldn't have noticed if he hadn't pointed it out. I don't know Beaumonts that well but they looked good in there from what I could see.

I had to replace both sides, and used the OPGI parts shown in my post about the middle of the previous page, which arent the same, and are sold as a pair.  My original housings were beyond salvage, and both lenses were cloudy, one cracked, so they've long since been recycled.  The U.S. Pontiac replacements I used are NOT the same as the ones GM of Canada used on our Beaumonts.  But, they installed fine, as described, and look factory from behind the car.  

Sorry I cant be of more help.  One of our number was planning to 3D-print new housings, which are the hardest pieces to find.  The OPGI lenses seem to be the same diameter and hole pattern, so one of his replicas and a pair of their lenses may solve your problem.

I have a handful of these stashed away. All of which are in various stages of decay (and all of which I paid too much for.)
