68-70 Charger trunk / boot light cover

Do any 68-70 Charger owners have the plastic cover inside the trunk / boot that covers and protects the rear tail lights? I think maybe only some cars came from factory with them but could be wrong.

If, not would anyone be interested in obtaining one if I got some made up? I bought one recently from the states and it cost me an arm and a leg. When it arrived it was cracked to bits so thinking of getting one made up out of fibreglass. If I get more than one Im hoping it will offset my initial cost. Let me know if anyone might be interested.

Some pics below to describe what Im talking about....

They only came on 69 & 70 Chargers. Did everyone know that the backs of 69 Charger tail lights came in 2 different sizes (short & long). I have got a set of both, I have heard that the longer style don't fit in the tail light covers but I haven't tried this myself. I will have to dig them out & try it out on my 69.

Are the longer tail lights not from a '70 and the shorter ones from a '69?
Always thought the rear lights on the '70s look longer
