ive got a set of glass front turn signal lenses that came with the car...today i took a glance at them and decided i had to get rid of them and get a nice stock set. SO...the question now is what types are there? ive seen the ones that are 3/4 orange and 1/4 white...what else is there? and if someone has a clean set (any kind) lying around PM or email me with a pic and price...thanks - Dan....O AND MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

There are 3 different styles that I know of, the US which are all amber, the euro style which are the amber and clear and the Italian which are all clear. I had a set of the Italian ones but gave them away to Boboli914 a long time ago. I only have a set of stock ones now and I am not going to get rid of any more parts till I find out what I need for a new fixer upper that I may pickup.

If you are "getting rid" of them, I'll take them. I'll even pay for them! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Were these glass ones hand made? Ive never seen or heard of real glass OEM ones.

WTF!!?
From the look at the picture, it seems to me the PO must have used the VW Beetle turnsignal units!....look at the base and the bulb socket locations....very much like the Beetle, huh? j |

other than the POS lenses ive got does any know where i could get a set of aftermarket Italian lenses, or maybe a used set of all amber lenses? better yet any set of lenses would be better than the ones ive got... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

looks like you'll need complete new housings as well, those don't look stock. stock lenses won't fit ! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) Andy |

the housing itself is stock...the PO made something out of sheet metal, sprayed it black, and called it a frame around the lens to compensate for the smaller than stock lenses...but yea other than that i really want a set of stock lenses any kind will do (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) purdy purdy pleassssssssseeeee (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif)
