1970 Hood Signal Restoration.

Originally the hood call-out was just that. It didn’t have the factory indicator openings. So they needed to be opened. Used my Dremel witch a carbide cutter after opening up. Used the lines from the casting.

Light housings were in poor shape but after careful cleaning they looked decent for their age. Used 1/8 amber plexiglass and UV cured epoxy for attachment and seal.

New wiring and bullet connectors with and LED replacement and custom amber lens set up. Rubberized sealed LED holders. Wasn’t easy but really rewarding.

All works great and looks factory.

Aren’t they just fillers and when equipped those lights the filler was replaced by a bezel with the lights ready to be installed? Did they really need to be opened?
