Instrament cluster bulb holder thingy

[Rbob]

I am looking for a bulb holder thingy, not sure if they are reproduced but..

looks like this:

[Floyd]

They are reproduced but I'm not sure how good the repros are.  There are also differences between the tubes (not one size fits all).  Do you just need that one?

They are reproduced.They are called light tube.Type in rallye gauge light tubes and they will come up.

Yea, they don't actually have anything to do with holding the bulb, just directing the light...you might be able to make that one work

All 3 are unique. The repros are all "left" tubes (at least the set I received was) 
The plastic on the repro was translucent, so I had to paint the interior of the tubes. Otherwise the light would radiate out versus focusing.

The repros can be made to work.
You would think such a simple part would be plug and play.

Does anybody have a good picture showing how all three are unique ?

[Skdmark]

The ends of the tubes have "keys" to orient with notches on the Left, Right and Brake lenses.
Each lens has a different pattern.

There maybe other more subtle differences, but the lens keys is the most obvious way to tell them apart.

Thank you all!

I found the tubes as suggested, $55 for 3 left ones.

Here is a pic of the tubes showing the alignment bumps:

Do you need one or all three?  If one only, which one?  I have one left over and I think it's the Left Turn Signal one.

Yes, the repops are all one side.  It's best to find a set of originals if you can.

I bought a repop set and they were correct.If I recall that 2 are the same and 1 is different.

@Floyd,

I am sure it is the right side facing the cluster, next to the clock.

I did order the cluster seals, they are on backorder so hopefully soon.

@Rbob -
Here's what I have.  Measures 1 7/8" at its highest and 1 13/16 at the low end.

@Floyd,


Mind has the bumps close together (brake indicator) on one side so it is the odd ball one.  I will try to make this one work and keep you in mind if I cant.

Thanks for your help,

  If I recall correctly . . . weren't the original light tubes slightly angled as well?
