Looking for Turn indicator dash light for 1951-53 Commodore or Hornet

    Hello, I am seeking that little turn indicator light lens for the left side of the dash for a 1951 Commodore. I have the bulb holder and socket that goes on the back of the dash, but not the little lens and lens holder that the bulb holder clips over and is held in place by the spring loaded prongs built into the bulb holder. Thank you! Kenneth

    Before selling to anyone, I have to say that none of these have the 'jewel' on the part that shows on the dash. You likely can produce pone of these yourself from red film or amber film but again, mine don't have them.If that is not a problem, contact me at HEThornetllw@yahoo.com Drop the HET.

    Dont feel bad , I'v run across very few that were not in use that remained amber. And a lot of those are gone too,

    I remember seeing them on some of my previous Hudsons and others, they were like a 3/16" diameter amber bead, or bubble type lens.

    Guess I'm one of the lucky ones, the one on my 51 Pacemaker still lights amber. Only wish
    it was in front of me instead of on the left side of the dash.

    Turn signals were an add on option then, and the indicator light was put in like an after thought.

    I had no idea these were hard to find. Did any other companies use these? I hate to say it, but I have probably parted out a few cars and didn't get these parts. I am not sure I have one for the 52 I am working on.

    Did some digging and found an extra one. I have no idea what the install tool is that Lance is talking about. Ken, if you still need it, let me know.
