    D0DF = 1970 parts. Thanks for the reply and good luck with the auction. If they'd work on my 77, I'd have jumped on em.

    That may be so, but from what I've gathered about the late 70's stuff, it's got something to do with the type of plastic used in these parts. The pods listed above are the only ones currently on ebay.

    Hmm, might just have to resort to doing that. Thanks

    This is what I would do. Early housings are plentiful and don't crumble like the later ones do.
