Default Repop 67 GTO windlace endcaps and lighter

I got these the other day with an order. I tried to use them and they are absolutely worthless. The lighter didnt fit in the dash and the black windlace encaps are just not even close in fit or color. Just thought id throw that out there.

There are two styles of lighter, Casco and Rochester. Don't remember which is which, but they won't interchange. Go figure.

Nick 67, There are two different style lighters like 242 said. Do you have the old one? We have sold hundreds of these lighters with no problems so I am thinking it could be the other style you need. We offer different end caps for different years so it could have been a mispick? Are these the lock pillar end caps ? If so these are reproduced by a very good manufacturer that we seldom have any problems with there product. Please give us a call at 1-800-421-2637 and we will get it taken care of for you. Thanks

I was not able to use the ones I purchased, and had to find some OEM ones for sale. Write up a post in the wanted section. That's what I did and got several replies. I also found some on eBay.
