[TR] PLASTIC 'beehive' stand-alone unit

[Chris Simonsen]

When I was rebuilding the TR2 with my dad (back in 1975),  we bought trailer
running lights at kmart.  We removed the lens and it fit  w/chrome
rings just fine. Not original, but it got me running through 1979..... (oh
jezze - I've been hauling a non running car around with me for 28 years -
does that qualify me for an award?)

Parts were not so easy to find back then all I had was NAPA and a manual
back then. I didn't find TRF until 77 or so.....
