I need new Lens for my 70 -914 and am considering the repo lens offered in Georgia. Does any one have feedback as to the quality , Fit and look of the repo lens ? My car is a collection of parts from 1970 to 1985 so I don't care if the Hella symbols are correct or not as other things on the car are not spec 914 parts. I would drive down to pick up the parts as there are a few other things I could use . I see the U.S. versions priced at $150 and the others at $200, I think this is a pretty good price if they are quality parts. Please let me hear some feedback if anyone has used these - Thanks.

I have run his Euro re-pops for a couple of years now (was in on the first buy).
The side marker is clear rather than the diffused like the Hella. Has presented no problems. The fit was a little off so I did not tighten the securing nuts fully at installation. Over a period of time I continued tightening them figuring the exposure to heat could bring them into line. I can't say that they "remolded" themselves, but they are as good as the Hella to me. For the $149 I spent for the pair at the time, it was a good deal and I am very happy I bought them. |
