[s-cars] McCulloch hid replacement bulbs...

[Tom Green]

Great find Bill.  That was Andy Chiu running that GB.  Shipped mine  
overnight from HK and they were on my doorstep the next day.
There was a lot of hesitation about sending money direct to China in  
those days.  Some motorcycle group had paved the way on
that deal-of course, they were getting their lights half-price : ).

There have always been replacement bulbs at decent prices, but the  
shipping from China costs more than the bulbs.  Nice to find a
deal with low shipping costs.  At that price these bulbs would have  
been dismissed just a couple of years ago as the "zenon" bulb ads
that flooded ebay.
