Hi, Just wondering if anyone out there has a Wasp Tail Light Lens and/or The Chrome Surround they would be able to sell??  Even a cracked lens or surround that needs re-chroming!! condition is not hugely important! Even if you just have one or the other I Know I am pushing my luck  Many Thanks Josh

looks Like I am outa luck so decided to look at suitable replacement Thought about VW type 2 60's tail lights, sort of similar (slightly bigger) Easy enough to get hold of and replacement lenses are $20 a pair including postage If anyone has any other Ideas I would be grateful  Josh

Looks like a pretty good sustitute considering the unavailability of the genuine light.... and early VW parts are plentiful as there are a lot of after market manufacturers. KB |

Hey Joshua, With the guard lights, they don't need to be orange (and indeed many weren't) as orange blinkers weren't mandated until about 1972ish. Post any Aussie-delivered Belletts anyway. Hey, why this interest in Wasp tail lights.... ???? I have a theory, but I'm wondering if you're keeping it a surprise?! Also, I have a single spare lens which I'd lend out if you were going to get new lenses made but I will need to keep in case I am ever bumped in the bum! |

Thanks Dave Can you get them made??, I didnt know that! do you know where??  We picked up a couple a while back, one was complete the other wasn't. Am having the backs re-zinked and i'm re-wireing them and getting Oz to re-make the seal rubbers from the one good one I thought I had 2 chances with the lens but I thought I may have a chance with the chrome surround  I think I know your theory and if your theory is the theory i'm thinking that you theory is then your theory could very well be right Josh |
