Thanks George. I've sold three sets so far this afternoon.

I'll buy you a buttery nipple, or whatever, in the hospitality suite.

I already have a set but I need directional mirrors.

Got that blank check ready yet?

OK Larry, I just bought mine....

I've got plenty of blank checks. But they're blank.

i also bought a set awhile back....these look great and are simple to install........very complete kit with easy instructions !!......THANX..........DAVE

Bought mine about a year ago. Beautiful. Thanks Dave.

The only thing is mine don't bolt down tight over the gaskets.
If the car ever gets wet, that could be an issue.
How do you get them to seal. The lenses twist all over the place?

sucks you cant put them on pre L cars and I gave away my fiberglass euro bumpers. I kinda want to go with the black out look on my 71

are these still availble at the $100 price?

I have only one set ready for shipping. $100 plus shipping will get it to you.

Remember, these only are for L models with the signal pod below the rubber bumper.

Larry

will they mount up to a pre L if one has the euro bumperettes?

No.

They will NOT mount in the chrome bumper as in the pre-L. Not the same size or style, no practical interchange. L models had the rubber bumper and there are no lights in the bumper. To provide a spot for the turn signals, a metal pod was added to the lower fender on each side, below the rubber bumper.

Larry, I'm sure you covered this before but what is the history/benefit of the 2 color lens?

Thanks.

Best as I can tell, they were original to a Renault. Being the thrifty guy he was, De Tomaso sourced many parts from those already available. For the GT5 and GT5S, he wanted to upgrade to the two color lenses, and he found the Renault units. They were also used on some British TVR cars, Reliants and then they were picked up by a Romanian manufacturer who switched them from a metal housing to a duplicate in plastic.

These are the ones I found a source for, but that source has dried up and the ones in my garage will be my last from that source. I did stock up for the future, but when they're gone, they're gone.

Benefits? I, and so far about three dozen other owners, think they look better than the stock Ford yellow, twin filament bulb units.

Swap requires no cutting of stock wiring, slight increase of the pod opening and a few hours time. I supply everything but the time and tools. Stock lights could be replaced by fabricating an adapter piece like the one I make, but fitted to the stock housings.

thanks!
