    I tried to answer your email but my email program didn't like your address and kept returning the message to me.

    It looks like a 170mm used by Porsche (and Ford Escort).

    Best,

    Certainly are a lot of 190mm Biode lights on French Ebay right now...

    It looks like some new 170's for sale there as well. I someone else making them or are those made by you? They look exactly like the originals.

    @Eric...

    Someone made a major effort to sell a set of those to me as NOS. Mounted in restored Hella buckets (that I restored ironically) he wanted $2,800.00 for them. He's been a customer for many years too. Do you have a marking on those that identifies them as reproduction and not original?

    Thanks,
    John

    these are period pieces that I must have had for 15/20 years - (this could also be mounted on simca CG)
    they are not 190 but 170 mm
    On the glasses they are the same inscriptions as these

    I just want to be sure I'm not mistaken (but reading the various posts on this forum I don't think so)
    Thank you for your answers
