I'm late to the GV tail light fan club but Revlimiter's posts on Sharka's new paint job showing how the panel's edges were blended into the bodywork threw me over the top.
So now I am looking--and thinking--hard about getting one. Here are my questions in random order:
1. Is it true that the Mazda Porter Cab tail lights are no longer made? If so, does anyone know of a source for some leftover new ones? I don't want LED lights because the look anything but vintage.
2. Has anyone ever deleted the backup light and had the space filled before painting. Anyone seen this done? I tried to find an image of this on Google images, but couldn't find one. I think the panel would look better without the rectangular light--which to me seems inconsistent with the circular tail lights. Of course, backing up at night would become a high risk maneuver.
3. What's the cheapest way to snag a new GV kit (complete with everything and orginal Porter Cab lights? I've bought a lot from Rev9 in the past and Maxime is terrific, but $900 for the kit...????? Any cheaper options out there? (and yes, I am painfully aware that I missed last year's group buy).
Thanks!!!
