Maybe Saturn coupes may have been the last to get the word... <!-- emo&:screwy: -->(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)<!-- endemo -->
As I have said before, the "signal" light pods are a unique characteristic of the 914 design. Making them house headlights will give them a higher purpose than signaling and join the modern "smaller" lighting trend. This and using the existing headlight space where the radiators will mount are why I chose this location. Legal? We'll see if they figure it out... <!-- emo&:lol: -->(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)<!-- endemo --> the "rise and fall" of pop-up headlights: Attached image(s) |

Well, you mentioned a few times that these were sealed units like it shouldn't matter how close the lens is to the cover you're trying to make. I'm thinking that they might throw off a lot of heat and that's why cars tend to not have them right up against the cover. But really all this is bench racing that is keeping your from making any real progress. I sincerely suggest you stop listening to us (but please keep posting the updates!)
