I want to do the tail light gas filler conversion. Does anyone have drawings & measurements of the filler assembly?
Thanks

Re: Tail Light Gas Filler - Drawings?
I'm not sure anyone has ever done a drawing, most of the installs seem to be more of a "figure it out as you go" sort of thing.

Re: Tail Light Gas Filler - Drawings?
Probably the best you could do is start looking at some of the kits available to do this and have your guy start his design by looking at the kits online.
These pics may help. Good luck, Rg
