C210 Part Numbers

[Socrates]

Could anyone tell me the part numbers for Stovetop taillights to fit a C210? (1978)

There are 3 part numbers in all, Left Hand Stovetop, Centre Garnish, Right Hand Stovetop.

Thanks in advance.

I'll check my manual when I next visit the garage. There is a centre garnish on importmonster. I'd bid on it if I were you. You have a good chance to pick up the taillights individually for a cheapish price, but complete sets usually go for a small fortune.

Can i stick with the one i currently have?

ive got the darker gray style, i guess it depends if the tailights are chrome or not.

Ps what do i search in importmonster to find it?, i cant seem to find it.

The center garnish is a different length to the chocolate block ones, and the ends are on are different angle.

To get decent results out of import monster search the automotive section for chassis codes like GC210 and GC211 or 2000 gt. If you try seatrching for words, like skyline the results get lost in the translation.

Also the garnish I mentioned previously is for the chrome lights, not your grey ones sorry. If you use your Australian centre garnish with the grey hotplates you'll have to cut the ends of the garnish off and it doesn't look so flash.

When i said gray lights, i was referring to the Aus spec rectangle lights.

I should have worded it better.

Thanks for the info guys.

Quick/Important Question

Will C211 stovetops fit on a 78' C210?

They come with smaller (in length) SKYLINE badge that's on top of the number plate.

Yep; the c210 hotplates in chrome fit; but require a centre garnish/numberplate surround, and the c211 hotplates fit, but require a centre garnish.

You won't need to drill holes, everything lines up perfectly.

In either case with the hotplates, you can recycle your old centre garnish with the ends sawed off, it just won't look as nice, and the badge on the lights will read 2000 GT-Esomething.
