I lost the retainer and green light cover on my a650 strobes kit. The green bulb cover is 60$ and retainer 47$ from aircraft spruce. I can't find them much cheaper used on eBay. I think that is a little ridiculous for a thin piece of metal. The local ap has a 2 screw retainer but not the 1 screw a650.

Anyone know of one laying around or where I can find one salvage? For 100$ I would rather switch the whole system to an led system.

Dang, not that I mind an upgrade but I'm working on upgrading my panel, prop and maybe doing efis. More expenses at this time are a bummer. I'm just floored with how much a small piece of aluminum and green plastic cost.

Dawson Aircraft in Arkansas and Preferred Airparts in Ohio are 2 more possibles. Dawson Aircraft is one of the few, if not the only, salvage outfit with an online inventory to view.

Perfect. I'll check them out too.

I had a good feeling that the thorp crew would know where to look. Thank you all
