I recently ordered a set of rear brake light lenses for my 74 westy from Go Westy.

First off I must say the order arrived very fast, they were very quick in taking and filling my order.

However, when my package arrived via UPS, I opened the box to find one tail lens with the corner broken off!! Okay, no biggie. It was probably happened during the shipping process. But then I opened the other tail lens and all three plastic reflectors had fallen off. They seemed to be very cheaply glued on ,and the glue seemed very dry and brittle. One look at my stock reflectors and I can see these are very weak imitations!! The quality on these are very poor and I'm shocked that GO WESTY caries such crap!! At the very least the guy packing my order could have done his job and picked out a decent tail lens for me!!. Sure the thing could have left GO WESTY in one piece, but to arrive here in pieces is unacceptable. I'm sending these things back and looking for a good USED set of HELLA lenses. Or does anyone know where I can get oem tail lenses for my 74 westy. Not cheap imitations!!! Was I supposed to specify german or crap???

Yeah pretty upsetting.
These are pretty hard to find intact. If you want I'll keep an eye out for a set. Are they
L-R or the same for both sides?

NWO,
I have one good Hella lens. I did not know they have different vendors. SWF also makes them.

Hella Bro

Are you selling it? Do you have the housing as well? The tail lights are left or right. Respond to my ad in All Trades/ '60 ragtop project. Thanks
