  • A Decent Taillight Mount....

    Ok, after buying too many of these off Ebay and getting ones that aren't as good as I want due to poor pics and over-optimistic descriptions, maybe somebody here has one. Here's the part...

    [IMG][/IMG]

    I'm looking for one a bit better than this one. Visible rust should be no worse than this one (the other side is much worse), with little or none of the pitting just visible above the hole for the taillight. Yeah, I'm being picky, but in my climate rust comes back quickly if the plating is bad. Maybe somebody in a dry state with some rust-free parts....

    PM me with pics if you have one, thanks!

    Oh yeah; this is for a standard, so any year will work.

    If you have not yet found one let me know as I think I have a couple here. I live in sunny dry Alberta so they are probably pretty rust free.
