914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Who makes RS style rear lenses for 914?

I'm looking to see who makes the 914 RS style lights, I saw them a while back but I do not remember who made them... can any one help please? thanks!

You probably saw them on a 3.6 liter car belonging to a member here. Try a PM to Series9...

The lights are just simple Hellas, but the housings are not being made any longer. It's just as well, mine fit like crap.

Check out the "Start of a Beautiful Build" thread over on clubnarp.com and you can see how I'm doing them on Nelson's car in metal.

I think Jeff Hail was making some. See his thread "bringing out the dead" or something like that, nearish the end.

I love Joe's metal approach.

Do you mean R style? I have the info at home and recall it is posted here somewhere. Mine fit like crap too. The body shop working on my car now is going to rework them a bit. Note also you can't use seals, or at least I could make them work, so throw any water tightness out the window. I do like the look for now but I saved my stock housings in case I want to switch back...

Thank you guys for all the help, info and guidance... it looks like I will have to do some fabrication so I will get a set of old housings and play with plastics and fiber glass.... I will keep you posted on the progress!
