I'm looking for the plastic "whiskers" that seal or clean the actuating arm on the headlamps. In the attached picture, I have removed the headlamp.
I looked in the PET and could not find them in the exploded view for the headlamp assembly (page 298). What are these called and where can I buy them? Thanks! |

Upper fronts are done I'm very happy with this. The poly graphite is very solid and I used a press to mechanically wedge these in on the metal. Could be done on a bench vise easily too. We are trying to finish up a custom tool for the A arm bushing install and we have made the new rubber version of them that are correct (NOT A URO PART) and the tool will make the job easier.
So we have those 2 parts and have just finished the trailing arm poly bronze bushings as well as the arm support arm tubes in solid stainless. I'll post up some more car porn later. Mark |
