    If you have at least one good original, contact Vodvarka Springs and talk to them. They can make anything you need from any kind of wire. You may have to buy a dozen or something, but for an otherwise NLA part, that’s not all bad. They were very reasonable on some things I had them make for me.

    So I dug out a light and found out that the 1935 1936 headlight retaining spring is almost identical and works. image.jpg

    Let me check the usual sources to see if I can find some. John at So-Cal says he knows he has a box full of them somewhere in his stuff but with moving everything he hasn't had time to look. Thanks John

    Received the correct clips today from Ray at Roadster Supply. Good to do business with someone who takes an interest in your project. Thanks Ray.
