They are certainly hard to find . I do like the look of them . Im a fan of the yellow light too Edited August 17 by Wheelhorse#1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 10,261 #1235 Posted August 18 @Wheelhorse#1 I’m not sure what year they started using the nice lenses like that? 1968 if I have to guess, but they were done at least by 1977 because the 78-79 C-Series didn’t have the fancy chrome horse head in it. It was just a decal on the lens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had always heard that the originals had the chrome in the lens, but the grey/black decal version were the only replacement available. @Wheelhorse#1 you definitely want to preserve that lens. You won't likely find another! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You won't likely find another! When you said that I went and looked at the ones on eBay for almost $100 and those are just the stickers. Wow quite the difference in looks. My 73 has a lens with the decal but no telling if that was a replacement lens or not. The 72 Raider has the chrome horse but that lens was completely cracked and pieces missing off it, but makes me glad I was able to incorporate that chrome horse into the light mod.

If you want to save money and have something decent that won’t put you in debt. A piece of thin Lexan and a bit of painting you can have something similar. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
