I guess nobody here knows either. hmm might just have to attempt this one day and make a write up...

I've never swapped them, but they have a very simple mounting setup. I can get pics if you like.

'87-'90 Celebrity. "Composite" means they are a one-piece light with replaceable bulbs. Not sealed beams where the entire light is replaced when it burns out.

I just wanted it to go to an enthusiast that knew how rare it was rather than some kid that would beat the hell out of it and junk it. :)
