Default 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix Vs Catalina Backup Light/Taillight Housings

My original chrome backup/reverse light housings for my '64 GP are pitted and will need to be re-chromed. The chrome housings for the taillight/brake lights for the '64 Catalinas appear to be identical to the GP except for the lens color (i.e. frosted white for the GP and red for the Catalina).

It's hard to tell without a side-by-side comparison, but the openings for the lenses seem a bit different, as the GP lens seems smaller in the housing. I haven't been able to find any GP housings in good shape, but there are some Catalina ones out there. They carry different part numbers though from Pontiac, which makes me wonder if they're actually interchangeable. If I could find a nice set of Catalina chrome housings that will fit with the '64 GP backup lens, then I'm in business.

Does anyone know if the Catalina and GP housings interchange for '64? Thank you.
