WTB: Euro Turn Signal & Taillight Housings for ‘72 Restoration

[rac390]

I’m in search of Euro turn signal & taillight housings for my ‘72 restoration. Please let me know if you have anything available.

Thanks,
Rick

Do you want original Bosch or re-production? Originals in good to great condition are getting hard to find…best of luck,

Hi, thanks for the reply. I’m looking for originals in restorable condition. I agree, they are definitely getting hard to find.

Can you share how you plan on restoring and/or if you have a source who has restored these before?

From my understanding, original lenses are very difficult (to impossible) to restore. Cracks cannot be corrected and the chrome trim/color seems difficult to duplicate/replicate.

It would be great if these could be restored as the fitment for repro parts is regrettable.

Hi, sorry for the confusion, I’m looking for housing assemblies not the lenses. I’m sure someone does it, but I can’t remember anyone selling restored lenses. It takes a while, but NOS is probably the best path for lenses.

Cheers,
Rick

I don't have any turn signal cores as they are getting impossible to find. I do have a number of taillight cores in excellent condition awaiting restoration. Not available as cores.

I also have available Bosch black trim Euro black trim lenses and Bosch U.S. silver trim lenses inn excellent condition. Available only with restorations.

Cheers,
John

Edit: I originally referred to the Bosch lenses as NOS. I think that's incorrect and they have been lightly used.

Hi John, thank you for the kind offer, your restored lights are very nice, but I’m going to hold out and see if I can locate a set to restore myself.

Cheers,
