Where to source amber front indicators

Recommended Posts

Not entirely sure they exist.

 

Think I may have seen some early amber front indicator lenses but never any genuine late items.

 

A fair few have done what you've done and tint them with film. Have you thought about spray-tinting..?

Struggling to see how both exist if early are amber and late are clear..?

That's what VW Heritage.de sell. For UK market & Europe, they were all clear. Amber is USA & Canada iirc.

 

If you look closely at the amber ones on the Heritage.de site, you'll see there is a small hole in the top corner nearest the fog lamp (handed). That's for adjusting the tilt of the fog lamps. Adjustment is not the same way on later ones. Indicator out instead to do it.

Key thing with early indicators is to make sure that rubber bung exists in the front as moisture seems to make it's way in othwerise - worth ordering some spares!
