Ebay: Driving (FOG?) lights

[kenikh]

Aren't these Hella 118 fog lights and not driving lights as the ad suggests, correct?

NOS

There is a horizontal line in the NOS units, which isn't in the Ebay ads lenses. Perhaps I am wrong?

Kenik,

Those are not Porsche use lights. Looks like the TN6 typically seen on Mercedes. Larger than the 118s. I've seen three types, all halogen. One has a split lense fog like the 118 fog (different than the "NOS" ones in the other pics). One is a fog/driving similar to the ebay ones in your first pic and a driving light with the same type of lense as the Porsche 118 driving. Mainly clear with delicate flutes. I've also seen amber split lense fogs. The easiest way to tell from the pictures is the screw on the bottom of the trim ring.

Interestingly I have seen one early factory press photo showing one of these larger driving lights (not a 118) in a thru the grill application on what was listed as a 67. I like the look of the larger driving light but, not the heavly fluted light like the one above. I have a set planned for my car. Kind of like a ralley look without the really large lights.

The pic below is not the factory photo I was referring too.
