    Here is a picture of LHD reflectors. I have drawn two red circles showing the location of the recess. Now, can you please post a similar picture of your 7045 reflectors? (remove bulb holder).

    I see, maybe a 10 degree difference, nothing a little file work cant fix in short order. Notice the lhd socket is not rotated one way or another but the rhd one is.. Does that make sense? Why didnt the lens fluting get rotated to match the bulb on rhd? Wierd Science? Thanks for the heads up, somebody could have gotten hurt, OR WORSE.

    Correct. You get a gold star for your forehead. Now, after about a minute with my jewelers file. The world will be safe. It is wierd how the lhd and rhd bulbs are oriented about 10 deg. different but the retainers are 180deg. different. What were they thinking?

    For ease of identifying the part, I would think.

    How many NOS 7045 units do you have? Send me a PM if you prefer.
    Thanks.
