Does anyone know who makes a repop of the front Blinker light housings for 68-69 RR ?

[Budnicks]

I have tried to find some decent Blinker Housings both rt & lft, for the front of my 68 RR, or any other 68-69 Satellite Belvedere GTX will do... everything I come across is just junk, or priced thru the freaken' roof... does anyone know of anybody reproducing them ??, if I have to pay a premium price I want new ones, preferably... I may just add/modify a new 1157 light-bulb blinker sockets on my own "old ones" if not, I'm tired of looking & finding stuff that isn't any better than what I have already... Just wanted to find some decent ones, that weren't worth there weight in gold, in pricing... I have all the lenses & gaskets just bad bulb sockets... any good ideas on finding them or modifying my existing ones are welcome...

Budnicks,nobody makes them yet.They are out there used and at a premium price.$150 for a mint pair on my GTX.Mid 60s GM stuff used a similar setup at a fraction of the cost.I had a bunch of 66-67 chevelles and the way those looked and were mounted is really close.

Lol, i asked that same question last week and wannadrag helped me out the same way. Should be easy (and less sacrilegious) doing some minor fitting with my fiberglass bumper rather than me hacking up an oem steel bumper (well, i would certainly hack it up, though a lot of you guys would surely make it look like it was always there). End of the month front markers will be on the top of my list at the Raceway park spring swapmeet here in NJ. Lol, want me to grab a 2nd pair? I plan on going with a simple pattern of the opening so i can size em up. Pretty nifty, huh?

HT413 Thank you for the offer but, No... I think I will just modify mine & put a new 1157 bulb socket in, especially if I can't get news ones, mine are as good of shape as any I've seen for sell, except for the light sockets, the pig-tails are good the plastic is good, I have new lenses, screws & gaskets... I may look into the Unlimited Products Fiberglass front & rear bumpers also PL-104ba front & PL-111a rear $129.95 ea., I was planning on changing mine anyway, when I painted the car, painting them black translucent chrome, they are kind of pitted & scratch to hell, my car is pretty much my interpretation of what "Plymouth Should Have Done", with a 68 RR anyway, different lighter bumpers & lightweight mounts wouldn't hurt either, it goes along with all the other stuff I've done already & stuff I plan to still do & another 75-or so lbs off the car... Just another damn little thing to add to the list... Frustration at it's best lately...LOL... such is life when you Love & own a Mopar....

No, those are for on-top of the fenders, I'm looking for the Blinker/driving light/turn indicator housings, that are in both sides of the front bumper...

I may have some extras lying around but I have no idea about the bulb sockets.
