Looking for info on tailight burner

Post by RecklessKelly » Fri Jan 17, 2025 4:18 pm

I have this tailight that is missing a burner. I would like to get it operational as its in good shape. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? Much appreciated. It is a right side with side marker.

Would look like this type. Generally the universal type, some wick holders were more elaborate. Same type used in side lamps.

There are a couple of types of drop in wick holders.
