Cheers Brendeni, I bought the lights from a wholesaler here in christchurch about 20 years ago, sadly they are no longer around. but they are a hella light and probably the best price here in christchurch would come from either canterburuy auto electric supplies or transport wholesale, both are in waterloo rd hornby. Outside christchurch probably try any parts supplier that stocks hella products, I think repco can get them in for you. They cost about $25 each, mind you that was back around 1990, might cost a bit more now. Anyhow start making some enquires and see how much they cost now. They are a common truck roof marker light.

After all that, you just got to speak to the right people sometimes, The person that I spoke to previous from our local repco store had no clue. I walked into the store today and presto, they had one sitting in the back of the store.....I did not think that I could be so happy after finding some side mirrors, my wife probably thinks that I am going mad for sure, The restore bug has bitten me , no hope now:)
