IGNORE PLEASE - purchased from DrPhil....

Pretty simple. My '76 914 has those huge ugly black bumpers, and apart from putting on the older chrome ones, the only thing that can help is adding original fog lights - or lights that are close to original.

Please shoot me a PM if you have some to sell.

TIA,

GN

Don't pay over $25 a pair. They're plentiful. Most likely someone will offer you a pr just for shipping. The 70-74 lights are a Horse of a Different Color.

I disagree, I took 2 years to find mint clean pair, and they were NOS never mounted when I got them. that's like saying its easy to find a rust free 914, plenty of them- not!

so it depends on what you want, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being perfect NOS, I found most were in the 3-4 range in condition, just saying.

I have a single one with no glass but otherwise good shape. Just cover shipping and its yours.

PM sent- 2 mint lights, lenses and cases 10/10 and internal reflectors also are mint.

The brackets for mounting the fog lights were only on the cars that had them from the factory.
To add a set you either need to wels on the brackets to the bumper frame of get one that has the brackets.
Good luck.

Later lights are much harder to come by as them made far less 75-76 cars with fogs then all of the 70-74 cars with round fogs. I only have one pair of late and buckets of early fogs.

Aren't these fogs the same as on the '74+ 911's?

Thanks! Already figured several ways to make the mounts.

No.
They are different. The 914 lights have the mount on the bottom and 911 mount on the back. Same housing lens etc.
That style light was also used on BMW and Mercedes. Had to find some NOS lenses and searched under the Bosch number. Found some for under $50 each. Were made in clear and yellow.
