Not even a matched set. No wonder they are so cheap with no bids. If you are looking for lights. Just key in 'trailer lights' and then hit the search button. (in ebay) I know, I've been checking every week. I need lights for the Santa FE.

If you buy enough mismatched sets, you'll eventually end up with a matched set. :D

Here's a match set on ebay. John has several listed. Just click the picture for the auction if your interested. The price is good.

I've got a set of lights like that. Really thin aluminum. Nothing vintage was made that flimsy, but they work well.

Gage,

Got a picture of the lights you need? :thinking:

Here's what I have Rob. The outside dims of the base are 5 5/8"x 10" with the lens being about 5"x 8 1/2". The lens screws into the base in two places (one each end).

I have found some close but not a replacement for what I need. Thanks for asking.

Gage,

No luck here :(

I save every light I find, but have not seen that style for a long time.

What model trailer were the lights from that you are looking for?

The '64 Santa Fe. Almost had some. A friend of mine was getting a Santa Fe for free for some work being done on another trailer but there was a communication mix up and the trailer got sold on ebay. I was going to get the tail lights.
