Darrin Ash tray
« on: April 09, 2010, 12:26:10 PM »
Does anyone have an idea where a Darrin ashtray top could be located?  I sent mine (taken apart) to the chrome shop and they lost the finger tab.   Thanks,  Jim

The tab on the Darrin ash receiver looks alot like those used on the rear ash receiver in the 51-5 Kaisers. The Darrin version is a bit bigger but you could probably use the 51-5K unit until the correct one comes along.

My car suffered the same fate.   while the the 51-55 kaiser has a somewhat similar shape the lid is curved vs flat.
