So I have seen a few threads but not really good answers. Does anybody make the whole vader light kit replica? I would love to put one back in my fj40. at some point my vader light was removed and replaced with a heater switch. Unfortunately I never had the light. It would be nice to have one there. Seems like a good idea to get somebody to create new ones for restorations. I know you can get the vader looking part from city racer. But I would need all the bulb assembly and everything.

I am currently building a73 fj40 that isn't a FST but will be wearing a OCD top with factory bows. It does have two holes to the right of the dash that are factory and appear to match where a vader light (dash light) and mini pull switch would go. So i started searching for a vader light...
Hopefully the link from Canada will mean everything is in metric. It's the bottom piece on the left that would have to fit City Racer repo hood. This is a picture I have on my phone but that's one of my lights. They are in another location but can get one for measurements next week.
Now that studied the offerings on the link the light socket itself will be tricky. The one that appears to be spring loaded is to clip the socket in place. The original is threaded on the back and spring part on the front it to hold the hood.
