This is one of those projects that you'd say 'you could eat your dinner off that engine' the truth is that you'd not want to dirty the engine with the food. :mrgreen:

I can find the larger bushes, did you dissassemble the lamp linkage where it's
Pressed together in order to plate it?

No I plated the linkage assembled just have to wire the link to the shaft so it has electrical connection

Are you talking about the bush that goes in the end of the light pod? Theses are the only ones available the ones on the link come with the whole assay I don't think they are available separately
