If you can't find one, I would suggest getting a green Sharpie and lightly covering the outside of the bulb. it'll have the same effect. Just don't go too heavy on the Sharpie!
chevyrestoguy,
Thanks again for the help! After spending last evening looking at your build thread on your '64, I have to say... you've got MAD skills!! lol VERY nice work on your truck. I especially like how you connected your brake pedal to your brake booster; very creative!!
I think I will give the Sharpie idea a try.
Thanks again!!
