Talking Clear turn signal lenses for 924 and 944 n/a?

Hi!

My name is Patrick and I live in Stockholm, Sweden.

About a year ago I really wanted clear front indicators for my 1979 931, I felt that the orange lenses made the car look at least 10 years older than it felt.

I looked everywhere. I even contacted Hella in Germany, but noone was producing these. Therefore I decided to start my own production!

Now I am selling these lenses. So far I have not really advertized them abroad, as I am not sure how to handle payment. But, I think I have a solution to that now...

I have pictures of cars with the lenses on:
<a href="http://medlem.spray.se/p931/white" target="_blank">http://medlem.spray.se/p931/white</a>

Price: 720SEK, which at the moment is about $ 80. Shipping is about $ 5.

Yes!

From what I have heard there is no difference in the glass.

I'll get the part number for the oem European lenses and post it here so you can compare.

Did you like the pictures? Looks awesome irl!

You are correct, they are the same. I want a set. How do you want to handle the transaction? Email me at jeremy.mudd@huffy.com , I just changed jobs and my profile email isn't updated yet....

Payment might be handled through PayPal.

At the moment I am waiting for an answer from PayPal where they give me the cost of exchanging and transfering money.

Thanks Patrick!

i may be interested too....i would be even more interested if there were clear side markers that could replace the orange ones on the 944 too, but i think this is only on the US modles, no?....i feel that it would look unfinished w/ the clears on the front and the orange just to either side...know what i mean?....all clear would be nice.

I like the look but 80 bucks is a little steep, if you make a set like they were talking about and sell it for 80, then I would be interested. Keep up the good work
