After much waiting I finally spotted and won these NOS dash lights to match the ones I had. Now I have the four I needed although I have two red and no blue. Does anyone want to swap a red for a blue?

Here's a little tip. If you have dash lights like these and dont have the right colours , you can buy one of these modern plastic equivalents for £2.50 inluding a bulb and change the lens over to the desired colour. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180735860907?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649   I have just swapped a red lens over to blue and saved having to shell out £14 on the above. Simples!

What fun ! Now all your mates on the forum can nudge and wink to admirers of this creation and say " of course the blue lens is not a period piece " I can't wait

It will not be the only thing, I just bought a new tractor flasher unit, one solution to replacing those now hard to find units that serve vehicles with one blinker per side. Anyway, that wont happen, I dont have any mates! >:(
