Bosch rectangular fog lights, as used on 1980's Volvos, SAABs, but not sure about 914s. Possibly used on the Bosch after-market lights too.
The parts you posted retain the lens assemblies. They are sometimes replaced with a protective grill with integrated retainers. |

YES!!! Thank you!!! Boy the memory does suffer from years of paint and solvent!!!
My 914-4 had those rectangular monstrosities on the hood.. I removed them when I did the repaint! must have thrown these trim pieces in a box and forgot about them... that was 30+ years ago!!! Thanks all! |

I think all the Bosch fogs of that era are the same, though they come in different flavors
