Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by blue dots but www.DocRebuild.com offers part #2660309 as NOS so if a stock 73 came with blue dots mabye thats what you need.
I never heard of that before, is that a one year thing or is that custom?PG

Blue Dots, are used to give your tail lights the appearance of being purple, from a distance. They have been used on Hot Rods for many, many years, and are in the center of the tail light lenses. They are illeagal in some states.
I don't believe that you can buy the lenses with Blue Dots, they are something you have to install by cutting a hole in the lense and then glueing the "Dots" in place.

Sorry "Shark", I don't know where to get them.

J C Whiney has the blue dots. Punch up their website and enter blue dot in the search bar.

Thanks guys. mrggrm, Forgot about JC Whitney. That's probably one of a rew places to have them. I remember looking forward to going there with my older brother when I was a kid. they always had cool stuff like HO slotcars. he Bought potloads of them there. They are definately the place to get them only $6.99 a pair. What a country. thanks again got two sets comeing.

Ordered the dots. you just have to drill the hole and put them in. they come with a little crome trim ring and a seal to hold them in. I found some old tail lights with themon ebay a while back.
