All:
I am at the stage that it is time to refurbish my 1967 Barracuda grille. To that end, I need new turn signal lenses and gaskets. Also, the orange bulbs that go in them. Or do they make an orange lens that fits the housing? Can anyone tell me where to buy these? My search did not turn up much.
TIA--------------DR---------------:)
 
Talk to Partsmonsta about reconditioning the metal parts. I think you can still get the 1157 bulb with yellow coating still
 
I had Partsmonsta polish my grilles and i did the headlight surrounds myself. For the turn lenses, I also liked the amber look and went with the amber bulbs but I also sprayed a translucent amber tint over the lenses and i really like the way it looks, even though it's not stock.

Got a pair of original '67s in decent condition........
 
One is OEM. Other is reflective materials added to the fixture bowl, new lens, and modern amber tint 1157. Fixtures now match headlights.

My lenses are cracked and need to be replaced. The housings are good and I can polish them myself. I don't need a restorer, I need new lenses.
Thanks to all who responded------DR------------:)

OK New lenses are at Ebay and a lot of other vendor sites. Try park lamp lens in your search. These lenses didn't always include new gaskets. I had to hook up with James at DMT to get the gaskets produced.
