A previous owner hacked up the sheetmetal behind both of my marker lights. Why? Who knows? As a result, I have no idea how the sheetmetal should be behind the marker lights or how the marker light wiring and sockets should project through the sheet metal. Also, did Dodge use a grommet to seal out water where the wiring comes through the sheetmetal? Can someone with a 51 - 53 Pilothouse post a good photo of the sheetmetal behind the markers? Once I know how it should look, I'll weld up the hole damage, figure out how the wiring goes through, drill a new right-sizedhole for the wires/sockets, and then repaint the damaged areas. I should have just fixed it from the get-go. Driver Side From Front of Grill... Driver Side From Back of Grill... Passenger Side From Back of Grill With Marker Light Installed...

Did 1951 - 53 pilothouse marker lights come with silver reflectors behind the bulb? Or was the inside surface of the housing painted white (or something else)? And did they come from the factory with amber or clear bulbs?

My '49 has an Allstate aftermarket blinker unit clamped onto the steering column. The blinkers do (barely) work at the rear, but they are very, very weak and they flash very rapidly. In contrast, the tail lights are very bright (as is the center brake light). Any thoughts on why the blinkers flash so weakly and rapidly, compared to how bright the tail lights are? Based on some of the other threads I've read, it sounds like they probably never hooked up the front parking lights as blinkers - is that a valid assumption?
