I have seen a few cars posted here that have Euro front turn signal lenses with the silver trim. I would like to use them on the 71S I'm restoring but can't seem to find where to buy them. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks, John

This Spring I purchessed a set of Euro front lenses from Performance products. The price was below any I could find anywhere $69.95 each. They were reproduction (aftermarket) but the match was spot on. I only used the right side because it matched the orignal Porsche ones on the other three cornners.

Thanks Bill. Are the reproduction ones the same quality as the original Bosch?
Best, John

BIll,
That price is not so great if they are not Bosch. I just bought a pair of 73 black trim Euro lenses. They are not Bosch but are pretty nice. I paid US$80 for both lenses.
I bought mine in England at Roger Bray Restoration. Pricey but original !

Price quoted was suggested retail. I recive a 20% discount at both Stoddard and Performance plus free shipping. If I remember Stoddard was near the $100 mark each. But like John I will soon be shopping for a new set also, since I managed to take the right front out when I encounterd the rock on the way out to the R Gruppe treffon this spring.
BY the way for all, if I remember right it is better to call your order into Stoddard then ordering on line. There used to be a bit of a price diffrence almost 10% . Calling the order in was a better price. But this may have changed.
