What are dimensions of the Dog-bone Back Light? GT380

Post by sportston »

Can anyone tell me the width of the later style dog-bone back light please?
This is on my GT380M but the same light was fitted to many GTs of the era
Currently I don't have one and I am wondering if I buy a new one will it fit the tailpiece I have now installed.
