Interesting.
Are you selling the tail lights, or performing the service on an exchange basis? -Rusty |

I see you sell the smoke lenses too for that "Rice look". I guess the clear rear lenses will sell too.

I think the clear lenses will sell very well for the 914 crowd.
I'm tired of the old school Euro lenses and the bland stock ones. If he can do these.. there should be NO reason he cant dup the OE styles. Greg, Are you setup for a hundreds of lenses in production..or is this a onesy twoesy gig for you ?? Can you bring this sample set out to Cal Speedway this coming weekend ?? I will be there and would like to take some better pics of the products and actually touch them. B |

I can provide the answer to that one.
"The lenses are molded in one piece so i would have a problem with the 3 colors maybe in the future.. " |

not really set up to make 100s in short order but if the demand was there they could come out at a steady pace It was just a sneak peek ,, I still have some details to work on before they are ready
thanks Greg (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) |

Do you plan to make clear lenses for the 911 body? Front and/or Rear?

Since we are on the "rice" subject...does anyone know where I can get the piller gauge pods for an early 911? I need a place to put a couple of guages and I don't want to chop my dash up. Do they make these of Porsches? I saw that the turbo boxster in excellence had them...anyone?

I *think* a lot of those gauge pods you see on A-pillars have a generic plastic base that you trim to fit the contour of your pillar. So one size fits all.

Sounds like a good application for LED turn signals. You don't see the color of an LED when you look at it, unlike bulbs that have a colored film on them. If there's interest I could try making up a few prototypes.

Could run these type of bulbs behind the lens, I running the bulb that replaces the 1157 dual buld, this buld had 19 leds on it so far so good.
