Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2011 8:44 am Post subject: Where to Buy SA Grille Inner Lights |
|
|
The Hella inner lights for my SA grille are both losing their reflective coatings. Since they have an integral mounting bracket, i cannot just pop in some Hella driving lights. I tried to buy some from Go-Westy, but they would not sell them to me because I had not bought the SA grille kit from them. So much for free enterprise.
Does anyone know who sells replacements for these unique lights?

Thanks! It's been a while since I contacted G-Westy regarding the lights. Like some women who populated my life, once they said, "No.", I didn't give term a second thought.

Bus Depot has them also, but I think they're a few dollars more.
As has been noted on the other thread, the lights themselves are the same as the driving lights from the early Cabriolet, but the mounts are different. The metal tabs on the lenses of the Cabriolet ones are not only deeper, but reversed 180 degrees.
