Thorn Voyager Twin 8w Bulkhead Gear Tray (Refurbished)

Here you see a freshly refurbished gear tray for a Thorn Voyager 2x 8w bulkhead fixture. Not sure of the age of this, the filled chokes make me think 1970's?

Stupidly I didn't take any pictures of this before dismantling & cleaning. It was covered in dirt and had obviously done some hours. All four lamp holders had gone crispy and were broken in some way, the top layer of paint had turned to dust & just washed off the gear tray, the starter sockets had leaked PVC plasticiser, and the pressure from the Terry clips had crushed the original starters which had gone brittle!

The chokes are noisy little things, but do work fine. The left hand choke you may notice I had to solder the cables to, this was my fault, I used a small screwdriver to release the cables and it bent the pins so they no longer gripped the cable :-(

I still need two lamp holders to replace the crispy golden yellow ones at the top in this picture, but they work for now.
