Hi all,
I haven't been around much lately. Maddie is a few days shy of 6 months old now and slays me daily with her two-toothed smile. Hope all is well in a good new year with my 914 friends. While continuing to procrastinate 914 winter projects (ignition and exhaust) that will keep my car off the road come spring, I'm warming up by installing my Euro front turn signal lenses and Camp914's splendid Euro turn signal kit, available here in the Member Vendors forum. This is what you get in the kit: I started by removing my nearly flawless US lenses. The seals are nice and pliable. The chrome inside the bucket has a couple blemishes but still has a nice shine. The top screw gave me a hard time and I found what looks to be solder or something near the tip. I tried to gently pull out the bucket, and to push it gently from the inside, but it didn't want to budge. Do I just need to use more force and push it out? Or maybe I'm missing something? Thanks, Dan |

It's easiest to get at if you turn the wheel as far as it will go to the right (when you are removing the driver side bucket) and opposite for the passenger side. It'll be obvious to you once you peek into the wheel well. -pt |
