Yes its GMC related... :D

On some 1978 Royales I have seen a light facing backward behind the front
wheel on the passenger side. At first I wondered what that light was for,
then it occurred to me, its a light so the driver can see down the side of
the coach when backing at night.

Question: Is that housing still available that houses the light so it could
be retrofitted on a GMC that did not have one?

Sammy, those are small halogen driving lights. They are wired into the
backup light circuit or a simple switch circuit. I think Kelvin in Eugene,
Or. put some pix on the photo site a few years ago on how he did his coach.
