ranger6350 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 If anyone is parting out an 85 Sunrader and has a tail light lens that would be good news. Tow truck lifted the back poorly and buckled my ladder and broke the tail light lens on the right side. Or, have ideas about where to look? Feel free to call 360 739 seven three five five. I'm on the west coast in Washington State. Thanks for any ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Most lights (and lenses) seem to have been supplied by Bargman and are commonly stocked at your local (and online) RV stores. I don't know specifically about for the 85 Sunrader. You might want to replace both sides, as over the years the color of the lens plastic might have changed a bit. If that's important to you! http://www.bargman.com/content/default.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noonesperfect Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) http://www.rvshop.co...10_p_72204.html http://www.rvshop.co...11_p_72205.html Bargman bought Reflect-o-Lite many years ago, but has discontinued the triple that is used on your rig. It is getting very difficult to find replacement lenses nowadays, but some sites still have old stock available. I have not been able to find any of the amber lenses, but I recently purchased replacements for the solid red and the red-with-clear (for backup light) from the above site. brad quick edit - i purchased from RVplus, not RV shop - the prices at RVplus.com were significantly better, if I remember correctly - something like $6 per lens Edited January 14, 2012 by noonesperfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Good, an expert's opinion/input. Thanks Brad. So the light's are originally Reflect-o-Lite? Do you happen to have the Part Numbers? Do you know of any complete units that people have bought to replace the originals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noonesperfect Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 The original triple light fixture is a Reflect-O-Lite model 1400. There is no direct replacement that will fit exactly into the opening you currently have, but if you use the search function, there have been people that used one of the current Bargman flush triples and fabricated a plastic "spacer" that eliminated the gap that would have been the result of different sized units. The only way to get a replacement 1400 is a junk yard or someone that is parting out their unit. I'm not sure what part numbers you are looking for, but if you let me know, I can check on my Toy later today. brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I guess the Model 1400 is part of the answer. The only other thing would be the individual lens numbers to aide the search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Bargman 1400 was used on many motorhomes through at least the mid 90's. Good possibility of finding them at a wrecking yard that has Rv's. I have also considered the frame to install the newer smaller lights. I don't think it would be that hard to take piece of white plastic and cut it out to frame the larger opening. I've seen cutting boards at Ross that would work ls I guess the Model 1400 is part of the answer. The only other thing would be the individual lens numbers to aide the search.

noonesperfect Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) The Bargman part numbers for the replacement lenses are as follows (they are on the packages for the lenses I bought): red lens - part # 4-14-010 backup lens (red with clear center) - part #34-14-711 amber lens - part # 34-14-014 The packages show these as replacement tail light lenses for the 1400 series - by the way, I bought from RVplus.com, not RVshop.com like I thought - the prices were better. brad Edited January 14, 2012 by noonesperfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Thanks for the P.N. Sure to make life easier to find the right parts. A Google search for the numbers should turn up some sellers. Am I correct in guessing you made a typo and that 'red lens - part # 4-14-010' should actually read 'red lens - part # 34-14-010'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops - yes all the part numbers start with 34. brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
