Johnny,

When I look at those ads I would say,"It's all Greek to me." but then again you can read that stuff !

Wouldn't it be funny if we think they are Japanese made, and then find out they were made in USA !

Believe up until the 1964 model Land Cruisers imported to the US used reflectors made in the US. 64 they switched to Koito reflectors. Have a few earlier US made reflectors.

In my casual search for a Koito red side rear reflector dated 1965 I've found the asking prices to be so unrealistic I've come to the conclusion that a name and a date won't make my life any better. So off to the trailer supply I go.

The link above the yen equates to $3.75 each
