71 backup light lens
Lower clear lens a little cloudy. Very acceptable if someone needs one and has none

Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate your comments and feedback. The original backup lens from the factory did not come completely clear. They were designed with a slight haze to the “crystal” section of the lens. We designed our replica lenses to more similarly match the originals. Through the years, some collectors have removed their lenses and polished them to be nearly clear. If you desire to have a clearer lens, you can quickly and easily do this by taking sandpaper to the backside of the lens starting with 600 grit, then 1,200 grit, 2,000 grit, and finally 3,000 grit. Be sure to not apply too much pressure when sanding. Light pressure should be enough to polish it quickly!
Bought It As Soon As I Saw It!
I am midway through restoring my '71 AMX and began looking for this lens before Christmas. I don't spend much time on the AMC forums but figured I would check if there was anything available and there this was on the Facebook forum. I grabbed one right away away and I am glad I did because I see that now they are sold out and it is only the beginning of February. Good quality, easy purchase, and fast shipping. If I could have afforded it I would have bought two.

1971 AMC Javelin Backup Lens
I ordered one of the first generation lenses when they first came out. I was disappointed - it was fine for a driver or if you had nothing, but I was hoping for something better. I reached out to Carreplico and they were fabulous to work with. They also were not totally pleased and said they were already back making new molds and would be happy to refund my money or replace it when the new ones were available. Since the first gen was still better than my 50 year old one, I opted to hold onto it in case they never made another one. We communicated every couple months over the next 1.5 years keeping me updated as to the progress. I didn't mind waiting and now that I have the 2nd gen lens, dare I say I would consider this gen show quality! Way to go Carreplico, can't wait for the next unobtainable part to be made!
Looks good
Really great service when there is problems with the delivery. Nice guys and a product that is top notch.
