The PO loved using a 5/8 in drill bit. Looks like he installed a lighted reflector in the back. I got a guy here TIG welding the holes up right now

Those reflectors were very common to make it look like a 911. I had one. Had to fix the same holes when I took it off.

We see a lot of those reflectors on 914's. I have never been a fan of that look. I am glad to see you removed it and are repairing the panel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I know I filled in my emblem holes. Once I finish body and paint I'm putting the European VW Porsche emblem

I always liked the look. I'll have some break lights behind mine some day. Soon. When I get around to it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
