Subject:Re: Cloudy headlight glass?

I haven't got a clue about the late model head lamps that have
replaceable bulbs.
Here is something I do know for sure, when I go to wrecking yards and buy
parts I can always get a couple of headlights, an assortment of bulbs,
fuses, misc plastic plugs for free on every trip.
The headlights are used and have no value to the wrecking yards.
Sometimes I find some rather unique quarts, halogen or specialized lens
patterns that someone most likely spent big bucks for.
This practice takes keeps me in extra bulbs and a decent supply for
replacements in the Westy I buy to restore.
