Thanks

I may have amber, if that will help.

Blue is rarely seen.

Thanks Dan, but I am looking precisely for blue. It is for an old Quebec Provincial Police bar I got but the blue dome is missing.

I have faith in your miracles, Dan. You'll find a blue one

Will glass work for you, or are you matching another?

 

[toon80]

I am matching another, but pics could always help

Take a look in my beehive thread for glass pictures. I don't have any extra now, but I come up with glass / blue much more frequently than The cone top plastic in blue.

Actually, the only one that I remember was a short while ago on ebay, and it was in such rough shape that I passed on it.

I know they are not exact in looks, but they will fit.

Hi Dan,

thanks for your input so far. Much appreciated

Here's a picture of what I am looking for. It is for a 1970's crossbar. You can see the Dietz light at the center-left of the picture. The other side has the base(although very weathered) but the dome is completely gone.

Red and blue on both sides?

On a Whelen crossbar!

I'll need a close up on the lenses, as there are two styles of fluting available.

I am not home right now so it's the only picture I have. I'll take a closer one in the oncoming days.

Yes, both sides with red AND blue. Quite uncommon.

That's a pretty interesting setup on those cruisers! Good luck in your resto of that bar!

Too bad you couldn't paint these. I have 2 amber!

Indeed, I have seen your ambers a while ago.
