Tye Churchwell Posted October 28, 2024 Posted October 28, 2024 I'm looking for a dome light lens cover for my 1972 Monte. Any ideas on where I can get one? Tye Quote
jft69z Posted October 28, 2024 Posted October 28, 2024 Hello Tye, Welcome to our club! As far as the lens, any of the usual suppliers will have it, even Amazon. Below is a link with google search results. FWIW, most of us around here have learned to shy away from OPGI as their stuff is usually on back order, or their shipping charges are stupid high. https://www.google.com/search?q=72+monte+carlo+dome+light+lens&oq=72+monte+carlo+dome+light&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCggBEAAYDxgWGB4yBggAEEUYOTIKCAEQABgPGBYYHjIKCAIQABiABBiiBDIKCAMQABiABBiiBDIKCAQQABiABBiiBDIKCAUQABiiBBiJBdIBCTEyNDc2ajBqN6gCCLACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Summit has a whole bunch of them, but unless you meet the free shipping threshold, it can be cost prohibitive. A good trick is to copy/paste the part numbers you see into google, and see if Amazon or someone else offers it with free shipping https://www.summitracing.com/parts/rnb-74320?seid=srese1&ppckw=pmax-stock-replacement&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxLOa1ZOxiQMV23BHAR3IkwInEAQYASABEgL3f_D_BwE Same part (Dorman version) for only a few dollars more than Summit, but free shipping: https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-HELP-74320-Dome-Lens/dp/B000COBC6K/ref=asc_df_B000COBC6K/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693335493112&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17158502291752946251&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005563&hvtargid=pla-897717164086&psc=1&mcid=cdfdd4700633371babfed98214c8dcdb 4 Quote

LOL If or when you decide to become a full member and attend a meet or mini meet be ready to have a lot of fun and meet some incredible people. Even the ones that break down for one reason or another have a ball. As In last year at Carlisle one guy was changing wheel studs on the show field and I had to get off my mobility scooter to change a spark plug on the show field all in almost 100 degrees weather still had a ball. Of course there's always people there offering help. We do have fun for sure. And bench racing in the evening into the night and sometimes in the early morning lol is the best time for sure. 5 Quote
