Default Ford Tail & Brake lights. - Assembly / Disassembly

The same hexagonal profile is behind the threaded portion, and this is larger than bracket hole. This would allow spanners to tighten/loosen the assembly body. The same action secures light in the bracket hole. Quite ingenius, two things done with one action. If my set is anything to go by, there is NO rubber seals around the thread to keep water/dirt out. I'm sure I can provide that when time to install!

The seller these lights came from has one final lot on ebay. It is only two lamps with one bracket, but would be good enough for a pattern. $50.00 buy now. I thought about getting them myself, to use as front guard lights, but I am a long way from that stage yet.
