How come you swapped the peanut blinkers for late ones?

although they do look like they sit too far back to be originally peanut style, also ties in with a lack of a wolfsburg crest, must be late 63 early 64?

retroresto 路

Couldnt get any of the narrow ones at the time and i had some of t he wide one sitting around, just econonics and the fact they are clear ones makes them look ok, your right tho, not period correct. Ill try to track a pair of peanuts down in the new year.
