garnetkid Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The previous thread about the rear passenger compartment light got me thinking about mine for the 25-45. Haven't given it much thought for a lot of years, so I rummaged around in my "stuff" and found it. I knew that it needed plating and a new lens. Does anybody know what the lens looks like?? is it just frosted flat glass or is it concave with a pattern or frosted look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROD W Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 garnetkid, mine is frosted with a slight dome, but I don,t know what holds the glass in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Out of my area, but I've seen these lenses being held in by a large snap ring, not just on Buick. Also- I still have a very nice bumper for the 26-27 Buick, re-chromed years ago, ready to use. Colorado , if you're close. Just sits in my shop doing nothing.

garnetkid Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 Thanks Rod, now I know what to look for. They are held in with a thin wire type snap ring. Anybody out there with an extra lens??? Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oregon Desert model 45 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 This light currently for sale on e-bay appears to be the same basic light with an embossed pattern. Was this used on a Buick later than 1925, or was it from another make of car ? link to auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1923-Buick-Interior-Light-with-toggle-switch-/121492238405?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c49807045&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
