Sidemarker bases.
I have two different kinds. One is cast, the other is stamped aluminium.

I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.
Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.
Everything sounds good on paper! |

Old thread revival!
Can someone PLEASE post measurements of where the side marker hole is on an early car? Distance from edge of fender at the door to edge or opening, and distance from body line up to edge of opening. Earlier in this thread someone posted the exact size of the hole, so I'm good there.

Perfect, thank you bad1916.
Looks like 1.25" up from the body line and 4.75" from the fender edge. _________________ Justin |
