I am doing some research for Brett's new book and have come across a minor conundrum.
In the engine bay of my '70 USA -6 I have 2 orange lights on the rear panel facing forward I can't find them in either the parts CD or the workshop manual they look like they were installed at manufacture has anyone else got these ??

Dennis they look like lamps that are commonly used here as marker lights on
trailers. That they are yellow not white is another clue. Maybe remove one to see if there is any manufacture info. If factory installed they'd most likely be Hella. It is a good idea. Some cars did have underhood lights from the factory. 914s had one. |

Got a pic or wiring diagram of factory installed light? |
