I bought a pair of Euro taillight housings as NOS from Porsche 15~ years ago, and they've lived a pampered life in my car since they were installed. I'll get some pics, but the housings still look new to me.
To my eye, differences include slightly "whiter" reflectors and a lack of the small U.S.-required side marker bulbs. Therefore, they're ideal for a race car, Euro 914 or 914-6, or 914-6 GT project. Thanks, Pete |

Pete,
I have what appears to be a complete with lens NOS right side taillight assembly. I've had this in my stash fir a long time. The right side assembly on my Euro M471 has always been in less then perfect condition and figured someday I would replace it. So if you get to the point that you're willing to trade your assemblies to different buyers, count me in for the "right" side. |

I can't think of too many worthier homes for these (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) but suspect splitting them will be even tougher to find a way to move them on to the right place.

QUOTE(Jett @ Feb 24 2021, 08:28 PM) I don’t see the difference between these buckets, except the whiter backing. Not sure what to look for? We took US buckets and removed the side reflectors, and then had the backing plates re-chromed at G-Car. Besides the "whiter" turn-signal reflector on the RoW buckets, there is no provision for a side marker bulb on the RoW piece. IIRC, they didn't come with the US-spec side reflectors, either, but mine slid right in so I used them. Might be interested in buying a pair of buckets from you, hit me up with a price via DM please. If we work something out, I'll probably list these RoW buckets here. If we don't, I'll keep them ready for the right worthy cause. I'm in no rush. |
