There will be some forum members who would kill to get their hands on this little item.

Thanks for the heads up Eddy! It will be interesting to see what it ends up selling for.

Yet another item we suffer for because repros are not made at this stage. I think us old blokes

will be dead and gone before most parts are available for the 123's.

I'm not in this race, but best of luck folks.

Greg.

I looked at it on ebay and I can't figure out where it goes? on the dash?

I'm on it. Hopefully I can figure out where how to install.

No Frank,

there were no holes pre drilled at all, just a plain solid metal dash fascia.

Why did this light sell for $80!?? Are they that in demand? Are gremlins going around and punching the lens out or something?

Hello there,

Thanks for the follow up. Was that the final selling price? Yes, this item is very, very scarce as no repros have been made at this stage. These are an all plastic part with a metal interior sleeve. Age gets to these plastic parts, and becomes brittle and breaks fairly easily. The white writing on the red lens wears away as well. The circular fake chrome bezel surround looses it's chrome finish, and shows a cream colored plastic underneath.Blessed is he that can find a good example of these park warning lights in top original condition.

Thanks for that Eddy,

yeah, that costing is a real bummer isn't it. That's why i ended up reproducing my own custom design one for my '73 Vert. Saved a lot of time, trouble and money to boot.
