Hi all,

  I've almost got my 660 restored but it came with no pilot light.  I think the right pilot light has a cone shield on it.  Does any one have a picture of one and any dimensions cause I'm going to have to fabricate one.  Also the approximate distance it stays away from the dial so it doesn't burn up.
   Thanks ahead for any consideration

Thank you Terry.   I know I've seen them before but the memory seems to fade as the days go by.  

  This pic will help in my fabrication of one .

  Thanks again
