240Z: Turn signal restauration assembly

When i got my “west germany” Spec turn signals last week, i went through my own parts to compare them, and realized i have everything ready to assemble a nice pair of restored ones. A perfect task for a saturday morning. so i got everything ready and started the project:

From the three complete sets i have, i realize only one of the amber lenses was still without cracks:

What a difference a little cleanup in warm soap water makes:

Then i cleaned the rubberpieces and chrome trim with a bit of warm water too and had the rubber seals greased up with a bit of petroleum grease (Vaseline) and the chrome trim cleaned and polished with my secret weapon called “Metarex”

And here we go, everything cleaned uo and assembled. looks like almost new. I will probably take one of the lenses from the “west germany” spec signals, as they’re exactly the same. but until then, i just keep them as they are. Oh andi need new bulbs, the old ones are both quite corroded and i want some nice ones 🙂
