Went to Harbor Freight today

[cardinal fang]

Went to Harbor Freight today to get a dolly to set my Vortec engine on while installing the 465 and clutch. (off the engine hoist) As usual, I spent some time looking at things. These reflectors caught my eye. I bought a set and brought them home to compare with the real ones I have on a shelf. The one on the right is the orginal. They are the same exact size with a small ledge like the originals. They fit the chrome rings like a glove. They come with adhesive tape on the back side. Anyway, a great stand-in for the real ones, $2.00

It's not on their web site, but I'll hit every store I pass in the next few weeks...

Thanks

Awesome! For some reason when I searched on that item number it didn't work. At that price I'll buy a few sets of spares!

Gotta think they are everywhere. There were about 20 on the rack at my HFr8 store.


BTW- GREAT INFO. Just about the least amount of money I have spent for a 55 fix. Plus, even if you no longer have the retainers (accident or whatever), these things would slap on the body mould and look appropriate.

Great find!
Bumping this and I'll be checking to see if that p/n is still live!

3 matches for 98389, but none of them are the round. I'll have to give them a call.

from the trucklite catalog. the signal stat looks to be maybe 1/8" too large, but hard to tell without one to actually check

The guy at my local store gave me the HF Customer Service #, so I called today.

Product has been discontinued, they don't show any in inventory.

Anyone have an extra set sitting on a shelf in the garage?

Signal Stat #45 on page 172?
Do you know what the price is on that?
Could you get me a set of two and I will check them out?

here's what the 47 reflector looks like sitting on a stock housing. it would definitely be a tight fit.

they're about $1 each
