I spotted a set of Caddy style taillight lenses at a friend's place today, he couldn't give too much away as they were for someone else and they walked in.
Apparently they come from QLD, has anyone seen or heard about these?

There is a brilliant guy in Brisbane, Rob Walker that makes a single Rocket style light for the FB and Ek taillamps that look amazing and reasonably priced, he goes by the name of Rob's Rocket lenses or similar, if anyone would ike pictures of exactly what they look like on and off the car and contact details for Rob send me a message and I will email them as I don't have posting photo's down pat yet!

Hi Stinky
There's an FC getting around here with the Caddy bullet style lenses on the brake and indicators. The lady said they came from Classic Plastics in QLD. Her dad in Qld is going to get their details for me. Will let you know when I get them. Have done a search on the web, but I couldn't find them.
Chris, got piccies but they're on my mobile and have no way of posting them, sorry. They look very cool..
Cheers
Tony

I'll try to get some details as soon as I can, but as I said the recipient of said lenses walked in the room and they had to be stashed.
I nearly keeled over when I say them, they are way cool! They look like caddy bullets growing out of standard brake/indicator lenses. So if installed as a set you have the 2 bullets.
Sounds like this Rob Walker may be the guy.

A couple of guys in the FB EK Holden Car Club of NSW have them. Contact details for CLASSIC PLASTIC Queensland is Dale McShane 07 5594 3286. Here's a (bad) pic of one that was in the background of a larger image. Stewart  |

Hi Gents
Dale McShane is your guy he does a lot of plastic work such as badge inserts and other pieces of classic plastic. Last time I corresponded with him his email address was classicplastic@hotmail.com.
I was inquiring about horn buttons and FC grill badges he did not do them at the time I spoke with him.

I must admit, I don't think they really suit the taillight that well at all in my opinion.

Come on now Alex, you'll have to post a pic of your lights after that rap  I also like the FE/FC taillights 'upside down' for something different. |

Hey guys... Not sure if I'm a big fan of those FE/FC style caddy lights, but I guess they'd grow on 'ya.... Here is shot of one I saw just 2 weeks ago on a 2-door EK sedan (painted as an FB).  Cheers Les... |
