When you find a supplier for the plastic turn signal holders let me know; I've been looking for a replacement set for years. Mine are held together with that silver air duct tape.  |

They do not make repop's on parts for these. You just have to hit the swapmeets and find some good useable parts off of the ones you find. I have a box in my storage I'll make a mental note to find it and part it out for you guy's in a couple of weeks so check my ads.

All he did was polish the housings, and clean up the parking light buckets, repaint, etc...
I don't think he's interested in doing more, sorry.
