I recommend, Shawn as a source for these lamps as originals are very difficult to find. As Chuck has done, the chrome covering half of the lamp has to be removed, if originality is what you are looking for. Remember to paint where you have removed the chrome cover or it will rust.
Also, Shawn's lamps come complete, rubber lamp holder, lense and chrome cover. I trash the lamp assembly and replace it with a new one from like Auto Zone, that takes one of the new series of high intensity bulbs. This will lite up those directionals and you can get them in amber or clear.
I am out of town this week but when I return, I will see if I can get some part numbers. I got mine at Pep Boy's, they run about $10 per bulb. If you feel additional lighting is required you can add a second light to each side and still be considered original. CSX-2286 had two directionals on each side.
The best way of mounting the plexiglass light cover is the way it appears Chuck has done it. Make some right angle aluminum pieces long enough to take two 1/8 inch pop rivets to secure it to the body and then use a riv-nut or similiar fastener, I like 10/24 and use a small head phillips counter sunk screw to secure. The headlight covers use four screws and the driving light covers use three.
I suggest you mount the mounts before you final paint the car. Fit your plexiglass to the opening. Without the headlights installed come through the headlight and fit each aluminum piece. Some will have to be bent back on themselves. How far in they go will depend on the thickness of the plexiglass you are using, 3/16" will allow you to counter sink the screw heads. Your aluminum pieces should be pre-drilled with three holes, 2 1/8" for the pop-rivets and a hole about 3/16" for the riv-nut fastner or similiar brand product. The aluminum pieces are then fitted to the body without the riv-nut fastener installed. These are then installed after the aluminum pieces are on the body. The reason for this is that you can not get at the pop rivet holes to attach the piece to the body in some cases if the riv-nut is installed first.


The original lights are from a Sunbeam Tiger Series 1 and are rear license plate lights.
