Sorry let me re-phrase that:

Does anyone know if someone (other than Ron Scobie) is still making the eco islander goose neck that hold the light shades? thx mm

Mike Wahl was the Islander guru back when I was restoring them. I do not know if he still has the capabilities or interest.
His quality was hard to beat and a very nice person to boot. Someone may still know his contact number in Nebraska ? Iowa ?

Was Mike the one who reproduced the two piece base covers (FEET)for the islander?

He and I had discussions about the feet. He never felt the effort was worth it.

Someone was selling the goosenecks for the eco 98 on ebay a while back, but not for the islander (wish I had an islander). Maybe he'll put some on ebay again ( I'd buy 1) and you can ask him to make one for an islander.

The gooseneck lights for the 98 are entirely different from the Islander version.
They are not original, there never was a light on the 98.
These lights are being made and sold by Pass Gas in Florida, I believe he has a website.
