I haven't found any discussion of this ...
Most all of my clearance lights are broken/missing/or missing parts..
These were Auto Lamp 661, I see that vintage trailer supply has the plastic lenses, and there are some complete lights with glass lenses currently on ebay and it looks like I can find new bulb sockets, but I haven't found:
1) A source or substitute for the metal retaining ring?
2) Or a possible replacement that uses the same 2 mounting holes (4 inches on center, vertically) I would like to avoid filling a hole for each one.
Thanks!
Paul

You could look on ebay, tho I'm guessing you will have to buy the whole light. I'll look and see if I have any old lights but doubt it. The base and rings are hard to come by. Another source may be trailertrasher1@gmail.com.

Take a look at this website. It is time-consuming but I have found random vintage rings, lenses etc. here. Tail Light king |

You might need a replacement. I like the beehive.

I just removed two bases and rings from a 1968 grain truck with an Omaha Standard box. I spent a week tryin to figure out how tell you that and I guess now that I registered I can't even send you a personal message to find out how to give them to you for free. Any ways, look on old farm trucks
