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! |

Somewhere in late 72 or early 73 the switched to the rubber cover that went through the hole. My question is when did the metal bar become the plastic one? I was pretty sure it was post 73 maybe late 74?
