    Do replacement lights have glass lenses? My originals are intact but the metal bases are badly corroded. If replacements have plastic lenses but dimensionally identical I can swap them over. What do you fine fellows recommend?

    They are plastic, and dimensionally the same as the OEMs as much as I can tell. My originals had no lenses, so I can't test that.

    Got the boys from atomboys on eBay fifteen bucks for the pair seem decent I cleared the bases to help with the rust as they had a weak finish
