Default 86 UHP Rear Lighting Question

Well the snow is finally starting to disappear and I took a good look at my car for the first time. Both front spotlight holes are still there ( filled with bondo ), the antenna hole is still in the trunk ( welded shut ), some equipment holes are in the car, but there aren't any holes on the rear deck for lights ( fabric or metal underneath ). I know this was an unmarked unit but my question is, did 86 UHP slicktop units have rear deck lighting? It looked like they did in some pictures I saw but info on these cars is hard to find. Any help appreciated.

Gary

Gary,
On my 86 UHP there are two holes in the carpet rear deck on the drivers side which would match the pictures of the red and blue chrome deck lights.

No holes in the carpet rear deck but that could have been replaced. How big are the holes under the deck so I can check my car out? I did find some equipment cables but don't know what they're for.

Gary,
I checked in the trunk to see if there are holes drilled but didn't find any. The lights that go there have 1/4" bolts and the holes in the deck carpet are about that size. I'm checking to see how they were mounted. The one hole is over a opening in the frame and the other is near a rear speaker. I'll let you know when I get any info on it.

I found the holes right where you said ( they were full of carpet fluff ). They're a bit closer together than I thought. Were the lights rectangular or round?

I think that they were square.

No idea what they are, but a halogen Dashmaster II would look the same when it's on. (strobe version pictured below).
