Golden Spirit Parts Interchange

While many mechanical parts are directly taken from the Mustang, still other parts were taken from other cars and their manufacturers parts bins. In other cases, the Mustang parts themselves are no longer available.
Picture
Rear trunk courtesy light - Perko 1146DP112V is original replacement part, suggest replacing incandescent bulb with LED.

Another option that is the same size would be the Command Electronics LED RV Dome Light if you're not so concerned about keeping it original. Some adjustment to the inner trunk carpet and backer board may be required with this part.


Picture
(Early) Front Turn Signal and Lenses - Until sometime in mid-late 1985, Golden Spirits used a complete assembly from the:
 - Standard Beetle 1970-1977
 - Super Beetle 1971-1979
 - Thing 1973-1974
Original VW numbers are Left - 113953042N and Right - 113953041N, but there are many replacement options available, including Mid-American Motorworks 379508 and others on eBay. Lenses by themselves are also available, like this one from JBugs.

Picture
(Late) Front Turn Signal - Sometime in late 1985, Zimmer stopped using the chrome upper housing and used a different housing as seen here. The lens is still the same and is available separately from the above part, like this one from JBugs. There are, as yet, no known sources for this later upper housing.

Picture
Rear Side Marker - This part appears to have been used through the entire run of Golden Spirits and, at the time, was a fairly common Toyota part, used on the 1973-1978 Corona and 1978-1980 Cressida. Nowadays, it's not nearly as common and appears that no one has (yet?) reproduced the completely assembly or even the lenses.

Picture
Opera Light aka Opera Lamp - It's unclear if this same lamp was used on all Golden Spirits, but at least some used the GEM 476. GEM Manufacturing went out of business some years ago, but these still show up either in chrome or gold plating (sometimes even new in a box!) on Ebay.
