60 Van Rear Number Plate Lamp

Post by Vigil »

Does any one have an extra origianl Number Plate Lamp for the rear on a van.
Or know of a replacement part from one of the vendors.
What are other people using as a replacement on their Vans?
I can not be the first one to need the Number Plate Lamp for the rear.

Thanks for your time & help,

Vigil

I was thinking the same thing.
That is more then head lights....

If you buy all the fixing
2 Screws, 2 clips, rubber seal, lens, bulb holder, 2 bulbs
It comes to almost 26 pounds plus shipping..

What are you going to do if there the only game in town?
I guess feel lucky you got the parts & not let the price bother you.
There are a lot of people who modify the light. Now i can see why.
You can get a custom one for cheaper then the original parts.
I like the original so i guess that is the price i will have to pay.
Unless some one knows of a cheaper source for the light.

Why does it not just use standard lights - as on the Traveller?

The standard one would obscure the plate, I'd be tempted to put a couple of LEDs instead as long as originality isn't an issue, otherwise what can you do?
