Title: Marchal lamps
Post by: shelbymann1970 on November 08, 2025, 01:36:42 PM
Here is a pic of my hardware. My washers are painted body color(Acapulco blue). Also the serrated washersmarchal.jpg underneath along with the nut what plating should they be? Is the washer on top that is painted the right size(spacer is in pic for comparison)washer? Should it be plated or painted and the original plating on the washer. Thanks.

Sorry, I dropped the ball on this

The hardware is silver zinc. I have seen the big washers painted body color, but I think zinc is more typical

thanks Pete as always. What I realized also is that they have to be mounted on the car before you can scotch lock the end plugs for the lights to adapt to the front harness.
