Blue Headlights?

[Lynn Eades]

Chris, can I suggest you start a new thread for the new topic?
That way, when someone does a search to find out about air scoops, they don't have to think of "blue lights" to find the thread.
In saying that, I think lots of threads go off track.
On the lights, I have a cd of a British parts book dated 1942. It covers the older carriers and the Universals. In the front it says 1 tail light with a "Ruby" (red) lens and in the back it says two tail lights with blue lenses.
The U.C. had one tail light, the earlier carriers had two tail lights.

When was your Carrier built Chris?

I picked up a tail light from a vintage parts yard the other week and it had a broken red lens in it, with the Melite Safety logo and everything, so I'm going to go with the Blue/Red combo on my carrier. Just need some new lenses and I'll be away laughing.

Alex,

I may have a spare red somewhere but I will have to have a dig around to see if I can find it. I pulled my lights apart yesterday to give them a clean up and noticed that they also have the Melite Safety with the roo on them but the lenses were turned the other way so I could see that when they were together
