RE: IML: Eagle Trivia Answers

["Mark Swingle" <swinglem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The eagle does face to the right on the rear lock cover, but this was only
on 92 and 93 Imperials.  90 and 91 had the plain old color keyed Pentastar
rear lock cover.

As a side note, the 90-91 hood ornament was clear, 92-93 was black to match
the rear lock cover.

What direction do they face on the rear lock cover,
which is not reversible and could unmask the
designers' intentions?

The brochures are filled with matching rightey birds,
so I just figured.  They don't pay me to figure here,
though.

I don't have a car handy for inspection.
