Title: Fibre optics box on rear parcel shelf
Post by: Nigel on August 10, 2018, 11:03:38 AM: Dear Sirs, I have the fibre optics option on my 1968 Camaro RS/SS however the box which sits on the rear parcel shelf is missing two of its three bulbs. The one remaining bulb is red however I would be grateful if you can confirm whether the other two bulbs should also be red? Many thanks

Good luck finding one....took me five years before I gave up and bought an original from Jim at Heartbeat City. Still feeling the pain.....but I finally got one.

Unbelievably, it almost got stolen at a cruise I was at last year. Long story...............Now I keep my windows 3/4 up and doors locked.

Its amazing what some a-holes will do..
