Default Amber Tail Light Lens is back

Hello 996 Fans,

I was always a fan of the amber tail light lens of the 996, so eBay to the rescue. Got both of them for $200 buckaroos. Put them on yesterday and they look great. In a world of red & clear lenses...it's nice to see some color again.

I don't usually like the orange heads and tails, but they've been growing on me lately on anything but a silver car.

MK1s look their best with the original orange lights IMO

You selling your old lenses? My po installed Chinese LEDs that are a year old with condensation inside already.
