£20 for mine at my local car spares, just matched the numbers up and it turned out to fit countless other vehicles tho it is a 912E.

£47.50 for secondhand sounds steep to me, surely its not a 912 specific item.

Similarly with late Beetles, I guess alot of us have bolted up pre 67 sloping wings, deck lids and lights for that early feel, probably still doing it! Seems to be the other way around with Porsches, mainly 911/12s, has anyon...

I wouldn't sand blast it inside, you'll never remove all the left over grit and stuff. Wouldn't want want that going through my engine, even with fuel filters.

Indicator lights on Rev counter
