marvinthemartian Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Hi Sam is it just lenses you require, or the bulb holders too. Front indicators are I think Butlers units, also found on Bedfords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wally dugan Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 the front indicators are butler 1518 lamps and you can find them on E-BAY or go to a commercial vehicle motor factors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samro Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 I could only find lenses for what looks like the back lamps... maybe some fabrication... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiomike7 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 You need a threaded base, bulb holder, lens and rubber boot for each lamp, they were used on many military vehicles but seem to be in short supply. The larger plastic lens screws on the outside of the threaded base and replaced the original small glass version which screwed inside the base.

marvinthemartian Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 This is what the bulb holder looks like, the larger 4" lens just screws into the threaded metal ring which gets fixed to the vehicle. This is a stop/tail light unit, has a two pin bulb holder. The indicator will have a different bulb holder inside, single pin. The front lamps could be a similar type, ie an indicator unit, single pin bulb holder, but with a 5w bulb and clear lens. Or the early trumpet type.
