Re: Carrera Coupe drop glass......

mdmax72 - Thank you so much for your reply, the thread on the 356 registry gave me everything that I needed. I now have two leads for the windows, so it's taken another small step forward.

The measurements are correct: http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/416163.jpg But be aware of the following: - some replica bodies (f.e. Chesil, Apal) have a wider/squarer rear than the original...

My first purchases are the rear lights and Indicators as I believe I need them to be able to cut the holes in the body. I think SMC look to...
