The 914 runs well now after 2 years in pieces. Pull onto street to test car out, promptly pulled over by cop for inspection/registration within a block of my house, argh!
Anyway, the right rear tail light housing has two wires that have broken off at the bulb connector. Any thoughts on trying to fix these? They aren't standard spades, they seem integrated with the bulb contact. What to do? Image of tail ight Image of tail light 2] Image of car |

If you can locate a busted tailight housing with good internals and connector, you can scrape off the reddish epoxy and swap the internals from one to the other, painfull but it can be done. You may also look for a good used unit.
