Good luck dude.  I have been looking for a used set for some time now.  There is a store on Ebay that sells repops.  They look pretty good, gut they want like $9ea and sometimes up to $18 to ship.  I just can't seem to bring myself to buying them.  let me know if you find another source.

Good Call. An Enemy of Marlin's is an Enemy of mine.


Are OEM lenses were no longer available? Because we have a good discount through the dealer and it would be simple to look up the parts in our microfiche...

You are just going to bang them up anyway, why don't you look into truck or RV shops for some generic ones.

Ok guys, I have recieved a couple of offers for the Lenses, but it is the black plastic backing that I need.. I have three good leneses, but every black backing I have found has crumbled when I tried to remove it.

I have been told that the rear corner light marker's black plastic backing will fit behind the orange lenses and into the front fenders with minor trimming required, so if you have rear black plastic light blub backings then I will take them too

Mike, order ones from a later model. if 85 is still available. SAVE the pigtail and swap it out. The wire crimp ends are the same. That is what I did. I would even bet the FJ60 (1986) are the same light, different pigtail.
