Question Factory spotlights ??

Does anyone know where to find spotlights that will fit the original production openings in the door frame of a 1968? Original lights would be great, but a good quality and properly fitting replacement would be fine. Thanks for any info/ideas.

Re: Factory spotlights ??

Thanks zeeklu and tcb-1. This will help a lot. The truck has the original brackets/etc. in great shape on both sides - but not the light fixtures themselves. Maybe a guy can buy just the fixtures.
The one shown in the pic looks very good.

Re: Factory spotlights ??

cccc,
yes, you can buy any part for your original spotlight you need. best part is everything is still being made in thier factory in Chicago. good luck!

I have a few small parts left over from a rebuild I'd give you if you want?

Re: Factory spotlights ??

Can you retro fit something like that? I've always liked the spotlights.

Re: Factory spotlights ??

Thanks tcb-1. I might be able to use some of the leftovers. Will take a look after I get the fixtures and, if anything else is needed, will contact you to see if you have it. Thanks again. CCCC
