 |
|
Hello all!
I am new to the site and Pulses. I recently purchased #221 Coors Light Silver Bullet with 971 miles on it.
Unfortunately durring it's trip back to Michigan From Utal the headlamp cover went MIA. Does anyone have a pattern, mold or spare that I can buy?
Thanks
Chad |

You could take a form off of one of ours if you like. We are in Jackson.

I have my covers off right now and can trace them. Let me know
which side facing the pulse and where to mail the pattern. you will
have to heat the lexan to bend it slightly, unless someone has a better
idea since I have not actually made any. Will be happy to help in
any way I can.

Hey Chuck...
Aint it neat that you're not in Michigan and didn't even know it?
When I tell people I'm in Northern Michigan, I get asked: Mackinaw City? Traverse City?
No...Da udder Meechigan. Da Yoo Pee, ya know. Eh? On da udder side of da bridge. Holy wah.
Oh...You're from Wisconsin.

I think these flip-up headlight fiberglass covers are glued in place.
Anyone that has this type of headlight should check to make sure your cover is solid and not loose. |

I often think of the headlights on the old vehicles named "Cord". The head light covers were operated by hand.
Considering how the electrically operated Autocycle headlamps work reluctantly, I wonder if a hand lever (spring assist) would work.
No, I'm not a mechanical engineer. Just musing. |
