As far as looks go-are there any differences in orginals vs. reproductions in these lights. Am I crazy for wanting to go the orginal route or do I just buy the ones Bill Tracy sells and go on. Somebody help me make up my mind.
Regards,
Gill

Hi Jim, I bought my lamps on ebay, a word of advice, only buy a complete light with bulbs and pigtails because I don't know if the repos parts will work on the orignals, those plastic pieces that the bulbs go in are very hard to find, I just lucked out when these things came up. If you will watch ebay close, there's a guy that has a set that is complete with all the chrome and everything, show quality but very expensive. I didn't buy those because I just needed the light part and not the buckets or the chrome.
Regards,
Gill

Dear Gill,

Where did you purchase your lamps? I'm restoring my 150S OTS and would like to use original lamps, if possible. thanks, jim collins

Well I bought the orignal J lamps and put them on today. Needless to say they look great, the only difference in repos and orignals is the real ones have "lucas" stamped at the bottom, I got these right so they really were not any more as far as cost, I quess I'm too particular when it comes to this stuff.

Gill
