My "new" '74 914 2.0 seems to be, as best I can tell, fairly well preserved. However, I am now starting to wonder if my tail lights are not original since they're not solid red and have an orange wrap around part.
Did this style ever appear on US destined 914's or did the orignal owner of over 30 years, for whatever reason, put these on? They have the look that they've been with the car a very long time if they're not original. Any help appeciated. Steve Attached image(s) |

Technically, you can not have rear side lights in anything but red. I'd be suprised if a cop would actually pick up on that one. Notice that all US cars with yellow turn lights/lenses have them facing the rear only.

Notice that all US cars with yellow turn lights/lenses have them facing the rear only. true. Im sure a cop wouldnt catch that ever These things are going for really stupid prices on eBay! They sell like they're a "must have" part. Wish I hadn't given mine away! |
