Location: The Mile High City | Hi, Marcin:
I got your email. I apologize for the late reply. I looked through my spare lenses and they each one is really rough. I would suggest getting a brand new lens (or set) through Kent Johanson and Peter. You can find them at

Member Posts: 9 Location: Poland | Paul, Thanks for pics and your proposal! I'm really interested to buy it! One question more regards to my topic. During disassembly of the lamp I discovered that the bottom frame (rear part) of left lamp has been taken from right side and used of left side (someone bought used part; it seems that my car had small cullet in the past but not so huge) and current part doesn't fit good. So the conclusion is I must buy additionally "rear" frame extra :-( Of course I'm really interested to buy the lense but maybe you have on your "stock" also mentioned frame form "left" side or even complete left tail lamp? P.S. Does anyone know where could I buy rear Emblem Nameplate FireSweep? Regards, Marcin | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 640 Location: Finland | Hello , this is what you get for 100euros plus shipping from Finland. The frame part has a crack at lower left corner but except for that it is fine. Osinski can repair and rechrome it if it has to be perfect. The light lens tower is shiny and nice but it is chrome painted by Fantachrome in Poland. It was too badly pitted to get a real chrome surface. (IMG_3582x.JPG) Attachments ---------------- IMG_3582x.JPG (46KB - 91 downloads) | ||

Member Posts: 9 Location: Poland | Hi,
Is it possible to insert/add any attachment to new post? How to do this? Any limitations for new users?... I can't upload any pics now. I'd like to show you my tail lamp and its condition.
Coming back to our topic honestly speaking I need only left triangle for my tail lamp; lens will bought from Paul. Any ideas regards to this triangle?...

Hi Mike, Yes a good one, out of the 6 only 2 made it to UK, guy that posted them just put the tailight towers in a box with no packing, by the time they made it here 4 were broken in pieces. | ||

Member Posts: 9 Location: Poland | Hi All, Thanks for your support from all of you. Luckily I'm waiting for tail lens from Paul "springsweptwing". Additionally I'm in touch with Danny who has whole set of lenses for me. So for this moment I'm looking for the rest of required equipment for Desoto... ;-) Best regards and Merry Christmas! Cheers, Marcin | ||
