Does anyone have a pic of the bulb holder assembly for a 57, using the festoon type bulbs? I知 trying to rebuild mine which was slightly damaged and been disassembled for 15 years.

I was able, with the above pix, to get my bulb holders fixed up... they were rusty, broken and missing pieces... I made my own lenses too... I値l get some pix of those later.

Thanks to you😁. I wasn稚 sure about the orientation of the broken/missing bulb holder. I made one and soldered it together and then made some isolator bushings. I have the housing mounted right now, but I値l remove it to fully assemble the unit and I値l take pix of the hand made lenses... they turned out good.... this is a restocustom, so I知 fine with a few things being close but not perfect.
