Topic: Turn Signal Lens

Hi, 
I have a '68 bug and would like to get new turn signal lenses.  Can anyone tell me what other years are compatible?   Thanks!

Re: Turn Signal Lens

only other year that would be proper would be '69. That is, if your signal base hasnt been swapped out for a 64-66 base, with a single filament bulb. What you should have is a dual filament bulb holder and lens/housing, which is slightly different from the earlier version, as the surface of the lens was slightly bigger in visible surface area. (Yet nowhere near like the massive units designed in '70.)

Best way, just get new lenses AND housings from any year between 64 and 69, thus saving the issue of getting the wrong lenses. If I can find any pics showing the difference, Ill post them.
