Hello,
   I'm writing to ask if anyone by chance would know the original price of some options available in 1966 for the Eldorado series.  In particular, I'd like to know the price of floor mats (front and rear, set of four), 4- way emergency flashers, Trumpet horn, automatic trunk pull down, power antenna, and 3-way prismatic mirror. 

   Thank you so much!

Ralph,
     Thank you so much for the information on option prices you provided.  I found a window sticker of the type used in 1966, and now I can complete it having your information.  You don't know how much I appreciate your response!
   
      Are these prices available online somewhere so that I could check for accuracy the other options I have?

      Again, thanks for your time and information.

Carl,

Below are the corrected dealer list prices (1966 dollars). Sorry for the confusion but I found a more complete price list in my records.

Floor Mats: $9.95 Fr. Set, $6.95 R. Set, Dealer MSRP
Flasher: $11.60 Factory Installed Price
Trumpet: $24.50 Dealer MSRP. The longer 22" “B” Flat note Eldorado trumpet was standard on the Eldorado, optional on all others. This is not to be confused with the more commonly seen 10" High "C" note horn which was often retrofitted
Trunk Lock: $52.10 Factory Installed Price
Power Antenna: Included in factory installed radio price
Three Way Mirror: $17.80 Dealer list part cost plus installation. Standard on Fleetwood Series cars.

Only factory installed options are shown on the window sticker. Dealer installed items would be on the selling invoice or an additional dealer sticker affixed to the car.

HTH,
Ralph

And important to note as Ralph designated, some of these items were included in the cost of a Fleetwood Eldorado.
