Only late BA's and BF's have the reverse lamps in the tail-lights. You can wire them up thought if you want.

If replacing the rear bar ... get a BF XR rear bar ... the skirts were incorporated into the entire bar (the skirts were not separate at all). And on hole in the bumper for that reverse light.
Then get the late BA/BF taillights and get them re-wired ... also the AU/early BA taillight globe sockets to not match up to the BF taillights ... different size hole in the back ... trust me ... I have tried swapping them straight over. Or if you get a Pursuit rear bar ... I have seen 2 of the reverse lights cut into the rear bumper ... allowing for the AU taillights to remain ... but to have 2 bumper reverse lights used to make it look even. Seeimng as the Pursuit rear bar had a centrally mounted numberplate.

So a direct changeover isn't exactly plug-n-play (computer speak) ... need to re-wire it to work in the loom
