Nope, they were all factory. !!

Any 912 owners notice what not quite right with the picture above ?

For US imported cars this is the easiest option unless you want to find some Euro front indicator housings which have the side lights next to the horn grill. Most people fit UK silver framed lenses but use the sidelight in the headlam...

Yippe it worked !

Thanks Miggs
