rear light housing

red67 · Post by **red67** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 10:05 am

does anyone know where to get the arrowed part below for short wheel base 65-69 models. (the rear light set up is different for long wheel base cars.)

i need the plastic housing for the brake light /rear light bulb, the whole part with the plastic top and metal clip spring that holds it in place.

hope that makes sense.
i tried rebo, pelican and mittelmotor and they dont have them (well i cant find them anyway).
sorry for the crap drawing hope you can understand it.
thanks

I've just replaced the front lights on my SWB 912 this weekend - not sure if the housings are the same as for the rear (maybe someone else knows?) but if they are you're more than welcome to it - seems to be in good condition.

I can take a picture tonight for reference.

I found it in the bin but it's not the same as that. it's a later light from an SC 79 911 your welcome to any parts off it.. other one is about 30foot under the rubbish tip!!

Hello Paul,

sorry for the delay - ended up being away for work - here are the pics of the spare I have - they seem to be the same. If you're still looking PM me your address and I'll send it over.

Edit - ahh just re-read your post and realised these don't have 2 connections so they may not be the answer after all - sorry
