Re: Tail light original or?
I know this is not what the thread is about but just as a point of clarification, the verb PARAR means "to stop" and PARE, in this case, means STOP in Spanish. I don't know about portuguese.

Re: 68C Interior
Hi Jason,
The part of the bracket with the screw holes didn't have to be polished nickel since it gets covered but the plater did it anyway. I will look forward to seeing your pictures.

Re: Step Plate Location
Thanks for the information. I figured "top dead center" but I wondered if there was a measurement about how far away from the body. I guess "top dead center" takes care of that too.
