Re: 1949 AD-kota

The front marker lights are pretty much worthless without turnsignals. The old wire and patch ons was not very safe. Time to make it better.

A stock single wire marker light


Get it all stripped down


I wasn't going to place an order to Classic Parts for awhile, so I pulled these off the shelf. Picked up for cheap and no plans to use them.


The hole in the back needs to be opened up to about 11/16". A rat tail file worked well.


Test fitting the new socket


Marking the hole for the #6 hold down screw.


All fastened down


Now we have a marker/turn signal. I'll get yellow bulbs later, maybe.
