Default Headlight Replacement Bulbs

For those of us with Fiber Optics you have to have a special bulb with a built in "tit" on it so the FO will work. I have looked at Autozone, Advance, O'Riellys for replacement bulbs. Do they not make these any more or is it a NOS item. If it is NOS and the price is crazy, I guess I will have to resort to whatever I can find. Any ideas on this.

Eddie,

Do you have a picture of the "tit" what you are talking about?

I picked up a set of wagner lights at Carlisle a few years ago. The part numbers may help if they are the right kind for you.

PS. I still want the Radio Bezel. How much for shipping?

Sorry about the Bezel. I had forgotten completely about that thread. I will go down tomorrow afternoon and see what shipping is. Could you send me your address by IM.

Here is a shot of an original T3 bulb that has the tit between the electrical connectors. The reproduction bulbs made by Lectric Limited also have the correct tit for the fiber optics
