Alan,
What sort of "plinth" are you needing? I've seen two types of turn
signal lights on early spits and neither of them have a plinth. The
early ones have glass lenses that are identical to the front glass
lenses only red. The later ones are a larger plastic lens that fit over
a rubber curved affair that make them aim straight on a curved rear
valance. If it is the later type you are talking about, I am going to
have the whole assembly available shortly, because I have located a pair
of glass lenses to replace the later ones that are on my early Spit.
If this makes any sense whatsoever, let me know.
