Not really sure what you are after.....is it the Hella 'ear' type, that replaces the arms? I have a pair, if that's what you want.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

No-go, I've wasted too much time already on the 'pics' thing. You may have to drive up the 'hill', and have a look.

There are two types of handles. Later ones are recessed into the panel, whilst earlier ones do not have the recess in the panel. The mounting holes are in a different place as a result.

Hi Shane,

The handles on up to mid 55 are flat on the outside surface and the late 55 onwards have a rib line on the outside along the length of the handle.

The Elephant Ears Bosch Indicators you are after, there were some NOS ones at Volksbahn, don't know if they have them anymore though.

Cheers,

David
