I recently had the score of a lifetime on eBay. Snagged a pair of guide lights and mounts for a ten/fifteen. However, it doesn’t come with lenses. Is there a certain size lense for this style of light? And are there any companies that sell aftermarket parts for restoring these lights?

There’s no such thing as too many Caterpillars

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
