 This is the T3 California rear light in the parts manual.  This is the Convert rear light. My California (In boxes) has the Convert style light. Did any Californias have this light fitted or is it non standard. I have been asking if anyone has the rear brake light for a California, but didn't realise it was a Convert style one! I bet the California ones are both rare and expensive, if available? The plastic brake light has a chrome finish that is very worn. Is it possible to refinish it? Cheers John. |

| Gutsibits used to stock them, surprisingly cheap (all things considered) |

| Hi John, just had a look at the old photos and it had the California style when you bought it. |

Hey John, you could have a look at the back of your Convert see if you have the T3 light on it so you could. Cheers Min

Hi both, I had to laugh  , a couple of weeks ago I was looking for something amongst my California parts again, (Having previously found the Convert rear light, thinking it was the California light!) I found the proper California lights! I couldn't understand why I had both.......... until I realised that I had put a different rear light on the Convert and for some reason I had brought the Convert light down to my "fixing" shed and mixed it in with my California parts. If that makes sense! I have all the parts to put my Convert back to standard. This getting old business is no fun. |
