Question Source for new roof cab lights?

I just spent over an hour searching the net and can't find a source for these.

I'm looking for the original hockey puck style used for 1969. Anyone know where I can get new ones?


Thanks,


Bob

Hockey puck style is not being reproduced..the tear drop..or fireman hat style is still available.

Re: Source for new roof cab lights?

Hmmm, that stinks! Mostly anything can be had for these trucks except maroon interior pieces and these dang lights.

Has anyone ever put together a list of the parts NOT available for 67-72 trucks? Might be an interesting read.

Re: Source for new roof cab lights?

Watch the parts board these lights come up now and again. I got a complete NOS set up off of there ... lights, housings and complete harness. And you might do a search on cab lights if you havent already. There have been a few informative threads on this.

I was thinking NAPA had something real close.

This is a case where being a subscriber might pay off. Many times parts can be found buy a WTB (Want to buy) poat and more times than not parts are cheaper than ebay. Best wishes in your search.

Re: Source for new roof cab lights?

The Stepside reverse lenses are the same,but clear. You could tint them with paint. I've seen tail lamps done with red. I don't know where you'd get the transparent amber paint.

Re: Source for new roof cab lights?

I have the clear lenses on mine with amber bulbs. The only problem is the drain hole on the base of the lens
