Default Now available: Clear lenses for 924, 944, and 951 - pictures added!

I have been selling lots of clear turn signal lenses for the 928 this year, and got very positive feedback on the quality and clarity of the ones I have made in Germany. Now my vendor started makeing lenses for the 924, 944, and 944S in the same high quality, and I just got my first batch here.

Below are some picturs I found of cars that have these same lenses installed.

If you are interested, they can be ordered through my online store at www.hookedoncars.com, or by clicking on this direct link.

I have one pair on ebay right now.

Thanks for looking!

You're asking a good question here, and I honestly don't know the sure answer. Based on the pictures I got they might be the Euro/ROW type.

Would those NOT fit a US bumper? If not, I'll put them on British and Australian ebay...

If there is a large enough market we can give it a try. For some reason I thought there was alreadya vendor doing the S2/turbo lenses... Is that not the case, or are there any issues with the ones that are available?

If you make sidemarkers and cleared taillights soon, I'll be your customer

Dad doesn't want anything clear on the 928

Hmmm... I need to find a local "guinea pig" to figure this out. Anybody local who would let me test-mount those?

I think my vendor just makes this one type right now. He is not capable of making lenses as large as the 944 tail lights, but if the market and demand is large enough we could persuade him to do turn signals and side markers. I have to guarantee him a minimum of 25 pairs before it becomes worth while for him to make a special part for me.

The reason I love his products is because they are every bit as shiny and clear - and sometimes better - than OEM parts. In fact, people seem think that our cars come that way... Little do they know how old these cars are...

Paragon-products did them. They sold out quickly. There are none left .

www.turnclear.com seems to be unreliable (from what most people have said) providing them.

There is one place in the UK that does the clears. they are out of the US side markers, and only have the front lenses for the turbo/s2. Theyre 235 US dollars however .

I think the turn signals are the same for Euro/US.

PET shows 1 turn signal part number beginning with 477, however it shows both the US spec and the Euro spec bumpers. I dont think theres a difference.

Xsboost90 had a euro bumper on his red car, and I remember he just got the bumper. He never mentioned having to switch the turn signal lenses.

I could be wrong however, but I think theyre the same.

Love the clear lens. They are on my list of upgrades.
I'm looking for a source for a Euro N/A front bumber. Just like the one in your pics.

Nicole,
Hope you will consider working on the 944 Tail Lights...
You won't have to do a complete lamp,
Only need to fabricate the individual segments (lamp consists of 6 segemnts).

Here's a few i would be interested in:
1. Indicator segment in CLEAR
2. Indicator segment in RED
3. Indicator and Reverse segments in SMOKED effect

I'm sure you'd find a lot of interest here, if you decide to take this route
