Vern, the clear lens is reproduced by Rare Spares now.

On the rear guard fins, they are left & right sides with different part numbers.
There are also two versions (but with the same part numbers) depending on whether you have an extension to the front of the 'C' pillar, as in the late '59 paint style. (http://forum.fefcholden.club/index.php?topic=26427.0)
Here's the description on paint styles : http://www.fefcholden.org.au/techinfo/fcpaintstyles.html

Hi Vern
I brought some parts of a guy yesterday think he has a nice second hand left blinker and I think a nos left hand as well. I payed $120 for a really nice second hand unit with nice original lense. Could find out for you if you like.
Cheers Peter

Dave...Thanks for the info..I never looked closely at the two fins..yes clearly ..one is 7410974 RH  and other 7410975 LH  ..In the hand they look the same , I just took them off the car last year and put aside for later ,and later has come ,curse of the assumption ,there is no extension to the  C pillar...A quick look just now ,is the rake of the curve on the underside where it sits on the guard a different profile on the inside edge to the outside edge ?
Rob ..Further to the PM I sent you,what is the number on the one fin you have for me ?
Peter ..Yes please inquire on the front blinker lights ..

THX Vern

Vern, I don't recall now what the difference is between L & R sides.
When you look for a replacement, the fins on your model should have a plain end.
Fins for the later model are shaped to accept the extension piece. You will notice the difference when viewing from the side & from underneath.

Dave ..yes I see,the beauty of images,mine are definitely the plain ones, i'll put them on the car later and see what the difference is ...
Rob..If you are looking at this also ,pls confirm the one you have for me is plain type and if LH or RH  ..then I know which other one I need .
thanks gents Vern ..

The difference between L and R is the curve on the top of the quarter. It's a different shape

Ken,

Which side has the odd part number, and which the even number?

Rob

R/H = drivers side =even number & L/H = passenger side = odd number.  In 99% of all holdens.  AL.
