It looks like the outline of some sort of metal (rust) bracket. Also, did you look for any remnants of a wiring harness or splice to power the lights?

Not yet.
Ricky Racer really boogered up the wires under hood. I plan on replacing harness from dash forward... I will look this evening though.

Man, this is a tough one. Strange that the housings are square.

The yankee light looks pretty similar....hmmmm

Those that are members of elightbars;

I would like your opinions on The Yankee lights...
Do they appear to be what was used on the 83 GSP's or not?


Here are some better (hopefully) close up pics of the actual article in the 1984 July issue of Popular Mechanics...

These were offered in chrome or black with a verity of colored bulbs. Naturally GSP used black housings and blue bulbs...
