In fact, might even be more if parts are needed. So, the real question is how good the repop vacuum setups are. Do they fit, install, work and look like the originals, or are there shortcomings? Same questions that always seem to come with repop parts. I'm starting with no parts to do the conversion, so I'd have to buy everything.

Yes I agree with Sidponcho. I thought you still had all the old hideaway light parts from your car of long ago. If you are starting from scratch no doubt the electric conversion kit is the way to go.
