You can buy these new for $280.00. I'd have to price it out again but you could probably part them together for even less. The last time I ran up to the factory store they had the frames - the rest of the parts are readily available.

Any body know if it can be replaced- just buy a cover or the whole "original" or a similar replacement?

They are original...]]> Hi,
First of all, this forum is great! I've learned more here than anywhere about Airstreams and Airstream repair. Thanks to all of you.
Here is my question>
Does any body know the diameter and length of the rivets used to attach the running lights to the body of the trailer. They are original to the AS and are oval shaped.
Also any tips on gaskets for the running lights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Remembering all of the Veterans who have served our country today . Thank you all not just today , but every day !
We are new to the forum & new to our Airstream 1967 30' International as well ! The first of many questions is : we have most of the original lighting, however , also have 3 lights that have screw in type bulbs (25 watt ) -- Are these original or have they been added ? I cant find them in any photos ---
Thank you ! :)

'67 Safari. Anyone know what light or appliance the electric switch located above and just forward of the entry door turns on and off? There is no outside light. In the off position everything is ok. If the switch is turned on, the 40 amp fuse on the 12V panel blows. Every light and fan works as it should with that switch in the off position. ]]> 10brink http://www.airforums.com/forums/f447/switch-mystery-58023.html Missing wire http://www.airforums.com/forums/f447/missing-wire-58011.html Fri, 30 Oct 2009 16:49:06 GMT Hi, all
While converting to LED running lights on our new-to-us 2004 Safari 28, I found that the backup light black wire is "missing", and the backup light is wired into the stop lights. The PO did disclose that he had bought the trailer wrecked - rear ended w. damage to storage box and lower rear quarter panels only. He had this repaired by a dealer to the tune of 6K+ and is cosmetically excellent, but it appears the wiring was screwed up. My question is: Where are the wiring harness connections for the rear indicator lights, above the storage box under the bed, below it in the belly pan, or in the wall? Not having a backup light is not a critical safety issue, but I want to make it right eventually, and at some point may become obligated to get a state inspection. Thanks,

The reading lights in my '79 Sovereign are continually blowing their fuse. I replace it and two or three days later for some unknown reason, POP, there goes the fuse again. My Airstream fixit guy says she needs a new fuse box, but I don't currently have the money to haul the rig to him and have it replaced. Is there an easy fix? At one time I thought it might be linked to the overhead lights, but I see no sign that the wiring for the reading lights is routed through the three overheads. I wonder if there is a short somewhere along the line that is rubbing against the metal frame now and then and shorts them out and have considered running a new wire from the back of the trailer to the front, the box is in the front and the bedroom is in the back, and then reconnecting at the two ends. ANY IDEAS. JLD:( ]]> Sovereign42 http://www.airforums.com/forums/f447/over-the-bed-lights-in-79-sovereign-blow-fuses-57925.html
