Hello Buick2882,

Welcome to 65GS.com, please let us know your name.
The park light assemblies for both the Special/Sportwagon & Skylark are the same. The only difference are the lenses.
Best of luck, those are one of the hardest to find pieces for a 65. There is a link that was posted here recently that walks
you through rebuilding the wiring. You'll need to scrounge some housings that aren't too rusty to start. Common to find
one or both studs broken off, but that is also fixable.

Here is the link:

There is a pair of the housing for sale on eBay:

The housings have been cleaned up already.  It isn't everything you need, but it is a start.

Best of luck with your 1965 Special!

Cheers, Edouard
