I own them. I have a set of grills to pick up and was just wondering if the lights and the grills were the same size. There is a cheap togle switch mounted on the dash, from the PO, I assume wiring is all there haven't bothered to look.

Porsche made a 911 driving light from the same housing and ring as the 914 fog light. I know. I have a set of NOS 911 driving lights on my 914. They fit perfectly, and the lense has a different diffuser pattern in them.

They are bright. I use them as daytime running lights to keep the SUVs from using me as a pinball.

Thanks for the feedback guy's appreciate it.
Aaron I was just wondering if there was any way on knowing how old the caps might be. I wont use them not now anyway, perhaps when I get the rins I want. I was thinking of doing something cool with em, likemouting in a frame or sumpin.. One of the few things my wife has that was her uncles..

Thnx again for the feedback on the lights.
