Call James at Xtreme Graphics.  I believe he keeps old units he take off when he does conversions.

Sounds like the lens piece fell away from the assembly?  You might just try to epoxy it back on.  Might be real hard to find a replacement assembly (housing and lenses as a single part).  They are from an Isusu Impulse in the mid 1980s - not sure what years.  Foretravel has them mounted upside down.  Here a related thread: What make / year is my tail light lens?

Foretravel had one for my 93 U300. Pretty expensive. All I needed was the interior part because one of the bulb connections had corroded beyond repair. Couldn't buy just that part - had to get the whole thing.

(Shaking my head...)  All the readily-available domestic models they could have selected as a source for the taillights, and Foretravel decided to pick a obscure imported car that probably only sold a few thousand copies in limited markets for a couple years.  And then they mount them upside-down!  What were they thinking?
