They are 4" Signal Stat lenses with 4 screw holes. I've found new red, and clear lenses, but no yellow ones yet. Hoping someone has an original part number to use for my search. The red replacement lenses are part number 9015 and the clear lenses are 9015W. I know I can use clear with an amber bulb, but I'd like to find yellow lenses if possible. Thanks for your help.

Give the guys at Tail Light King a call they had yellow ones in stock and shipped them out right away. In excellent shape. Can't speak highly enough of their service. The website showed out of stock but they did have 2 when I contacted them directly.

Good luck.

Thanks guys. I bought one used amber one today off eBay and some two red ones. I'll try tail light king too. I left a voice mail there this morning. I appreciate all your suggestions.

Hey Ken,
Good luck with your search for the right yellow lenses. Queen Creek, Arizona... I had to go look
up where it was... That's pretty close to one of my favorite back roads out of Phoenix ...Route 60 out to Globe
& then down to Safford through reservation country. (Anything to avoid I 10) Nice ...

Yankee Turnflex is another brand that that makes an exact four-screw replacement, but the lens is a different style.
Buy Yankee Lighting Vintage Black Pedestal Turn Signal Lights Ratrod Hotrod Custom motorcycle in Hendersonville, North Carolina, US, for US $34.99

Thanks Ben,
My stepdad lived in Safford until last year when he passed. We just sold the house there. Been that trip many times.

OK guys, I bought 4 lenses off of eBay. They are beautiful.......but the amber ones are 4 1/4". Too big. I used to have a CD with the COE part numbers on it but I can't find it. Would any of you guys be able to find the Ford part number for the amber lenses? They are a Signal Stat 9015A I'm pretty sure but no one has them. I'm hoping if I search by the Ford number I may find something. I sent emails to the guys you recommended and haven't heard anything yet. Thanks guys. Dang cat hair....
I'm going to try Green sales also.

Sorry Ken, no turn signals in the '48 - '54 book. These are aftermarket & dealer installations.

Turn signals were an accessory available as a kit from Ford. In the back of the catalog in the Accessory section, under basic part number 18447, it is there. They do show lamp lenses, but with no description of screw count, size, etc., so I'm not sure if this will work for your application. Try part numbers FAA 13328-A for amber, FAA 13329-A for red. Hope this helps.
