Re: After market T3 Headlights for our GMC's ?

Got any junkyards around? I see these frequently in many cars/trucks. The lows are harder to find but they are out there. Much cheaper than buying new ones. I pay $1 each!

Best bet is old pappy type Buicks, etc that didn't get driven at night much.

Note there are 2 different styles. 1967 and older have no lines in the center triangle and 68-up do.

Good info. The yards around here are mostly late model (real junk).
Where do I by new ones?

Look at some of the larger Corvette or Chevelle suppliers. Both used 4 bulb round lights and should have repop T3s.
