Can you buy just the inner white mounting plate as the two screw inserts on mine have cracked so I cant tighten the lens

 

 

In addition what is this?

Steve,

The item in the 2nd photo looks like a VDO pressure sending unit. Is it connected to a braided line plumbed to the oil system?

I've never seen the white turn signal housing sold separately. If you didn't want to buy the whole assy, you might be able to get some 3/8" hard line (or whatever size has the proper ID), cut off a short section and JBWeld it around the broken piece to reinforce it. I measured the OD of the (2) white stubs at around .278".

Or you could convert to LED bulbs which probably won't need replacement, and use something like weatherstrip sealant to glue the lens to the white base.....

Just a thought.....

I think I would try to fill the crack with glue by expanding it with the screw, then remove the screw and put a small clamp on it. If that doesn't hold, fill the holes with epoxy, then drill small pilot holes and use smaller screws with washers to fasten the lenses. Only costs a bit of time and glue to see if it works.

The wife came up with the solution using super glue and the stuff woman use to fix their nails.

It is like a thin cloth that she cut into two thin strips, wrapped around the screw threads which in turn reinforces the whole screw thread.

 

Seems to have work a treat (-:
