Re: looking for... side markers.

Guys,

thanks a lot to everyone who responded. After sending the message below,
I have opened the newly received package from WCM (the hood seal) and
found their usual AC catalog with a separate new price list supplement.

According to the new price list, they now supply 3 kinds (red/clear, red , 
amber) of side markers for $49.50 a pair if I remember correctly. Note
that a price list inside the catalog still lists them as unavailable
(price of 0.00).

As for Bill & Steve, David, is $20 for a unit or a pair? Do they
have an e-mail?

Let's say lenses is not a problem. I still need at least 1 base. Does
anyone has anything on this one?
