I posted this in the garage forum also, but thought it should go here also.
I just happen to have a sets of the different style lenses Porsche used for Fog lights on our beloved 914s. By my count there was actually 4 different style lenses used. So lets start:
Style one was used on all 1970 914 & 914/6 only (maybe on 71s also, but I haven't seen any) We all know the early foglights were round, but there were three different style lenses used.
This is style was used on 1970. Notice the line dividing the lense. You will not see that on 71 - 74 cars.
Style two is the most common seen for round fog lights
Style three is Euro style. From research I have done they were available in the USA, but you had to order them. Notice how different the lenses looks.
Style four is used on all 75 & 76 cars equipped with fog lights.
here is all four side by side. I'm still resarching as I have seen cars with different color lenses, but I am not sure if it was factory option or not. SO stay tuned.
Have you looked here yet Garold?

Good info on the series of fog/driving lights used on 914's with pix!
IIRC - back in the day the dealer told me that one of the fog lights available in Europe/GB, were illegal here because they lacked DOT approval, so you couldn't even special order it. I think it was the yellow round fogs.
Now you may see those here, with parts swaps & imported Euro-land 914s.
