Pet Peeve - Improper use of Euro front signal lenses

[Gumby]

I like the look even though incorrect/nonfunctional...I rarely drive it at night

Cool down.

"Divider"-- City light bulb holder can been purchased here: https://sportwagen-eckert.com/produc...rsche-911.html

BTW the inner ROW reflector, which is not transparent, should be also replace in a US turn signal housing

I have a real need for these from time to time. I have fabricated them at times in the past but I would prefer originals. However when I go to this link I'm unable to find a buy button. What am I missing?

Thanks,
John

those ITALIAN lenses are very beatiful!!

Audette, I couldn't find click to buy either.
I violated the original post comment... and I wanted to fix it up better.

I entirely endorse both the euro lens and the stark division of lights in the euro housing. Sorry to distract the subject, but given mine are hacked to death, is there advice (or a thread) discussing the merits of restore vs replace?

Separately, I love how this thread has animated the board. It is stumbling real time into one of those old threads you discover where you can't quite believe the level of detail which was discussed.

I posted this somewhere on the forum but I never posted it here. In case you missed the other thread, I have these Euro city light bulb holder mounts available now. I ordered the OEM blank metal plates and configured them myself.



I use white wire now, the same that the factory used. You will find them at the AC Shop - $118.00 a pair. It seems that the lack of a city light for the proper section of the Euro lenses bugged a lot of folks as I have sold lots of them. Easy to install as both turn signal housings, U.S. and Euro, have small prongs on the inside of the housings that they mount on.

Cheers,
John

Heh, heh. Why do you think I got some of the dark adhesive pads from you last year?

Have you got any more please @LivefromNY? (can’t see a PM link for you on your profile)

That's because he was booted from the board for daring to question...

Here is another resource for our early cars. You can find him there.
