I bought a 70 vert last year and all winter I repaired and cleaned this beauty and the fiber optics is one thing I paid attention to , I cleaned all the end and lenses I think it's cool ,

I definitely love the cool factor of the fiber optics on my '69. The only regret I have, is that they don't have monitors for the back-up lights, and those are the most likely to be out on mine (usually a loose connection at the socket).
I have some difficulty in the left rear lens in the console. I think due to the 90 degree bend that particular lens takes, it tends to be much dimmer than the rest. There's actually a 45 degree reflector molded into the lens to direct the light from the incoming optic cable to the lens itself, and it must lose some efficiency in light transmission. Wish that one was bright as the rest - anyone have this issue? or a fix for that condition?
