  • Electrical: Head Light Spring ?

    Does anyone know a source for a head light spring?

    I found while working on the head lights on my 1949 2R5 a broken spring on one light and one missing on the other light. Hardware store spring selections have nothing close. Auto parts stores 'help' displays have nothing close either. At my favorite FLAPS, they looked in brake hardware kits for something close, but did not find anything that would work.

    The parts manual shows part number 285192, which I did not find in the vendor websites I looked at.

    Thanks.

    Fixed! A Chevrolet dealer in our area had a box of springs and found 4 that are very close to fitting. I just needed to shorten them a little.
