Unique 1971 Billboard Cuda side marker lights?

[Cuda Cody]

I've heard that 1971 Billboard Cudas got unique side marker lights?   Since the billboards were only available in black or white, they had unique side marker lights that had different (sub) part numbers and stated "Black / White".  Has anyone else found this to be true?

Two 71 Billboard Cudas that i owned had those.

Thanks @moparparts      Kinda of neat that billboard Cudas got those.  Do you have any photos of your old Cudas?

Ive got a NOS 69 marker light that is wood grain vinyl rapped for station wagons with a unique part number. I'd have to check if the casting says anything different.

I just don't know why they would the number on the castings different? Seams like same casting just different paint. I'd assume just for assembly purposes?

I just glass beaded mine and they are off my 71 cuda. I wonder if its a 71 barracuda/cuda  thing. Was the top picture you show cody off a 70 cuda? one picture is with the reflector out to see the original green!

Mine are just Swap meet finds so I don't know what they came out of.

You'll find most 71's have that writing

I agree with Alan.  I have one 1971 original paint Cuda, and another set of rear sidemarker housings from an original-paint '71 Barracuda, and both have this style of sidemarker housings but neither are Billboard cars (ie both still have original paint in body color).  As was mentioned above I believe this was just a running change, where for 1971 this new part was cast with these different PNs just to identify the PN change for different applications.
