The plastic boxes the bulbs sit in are the hardest parts to replace. Without them there is no place to put the bulbs,labels,or chrome bezels. The original incandescent bulbs often melted the plastic and many break during removal. It would be great if someone made those. Using LEDs would reduce heat and help preserve them.

Check the "for sale" section. Lots of people putting in BCB dashes and not using their factory lights.

It's more likely the owners of '73-'77s are looking to restore their dashes than through them out. Those of us that are lucky enough to functioning light bars need to know they won't last indefinitely. I found a similar light bar in a custom chassis large truck. It was made by State Tool & Mfg. Perhaps one of the venders could persuade them to do a run of the Bronco light bars. Some of the Jeep CJs also have the same type of light bars.

Thanks for the replies.
Bought the BCB light bar label and led kit along with the led lights for the gauge cluster.
That makes it the fifth Bronco parts vendor I deal with.
Just trying to spread it around.

I wish someone would start doing them with billet alum and using bc's kit to complete. What do you think Chuck? or Nickstrix? or anyone that does cnc billet milling?

Important install note... don't DRILL out the plastic to mount the new lights...whether they are Chucks, eBay specials, or Radio Shack. The drill will split your 40 yr old plastic bracket/box that holds the bulbs.

Use a dremel or equiv. to make the hole larger...


It's nice to have dash lights again... : )
