Quick question,

Would 63 beetle front indicator assemblies fit on 66 guards? I have the indicator assemblies that came with the car, period correct wider ones with the clear plastic lenses, But I am interested in using the slimmer 63 ones.

I have found that Cip1 are doing them for $15 Us each, and I'm looking at some on ebay, but I'm just wondering if they will fit in the holes in the guards.

Thanks

Yes they fit. But the '64-'67 guards, with the wider blinkers, have the mounting holes further back and further out by a few cm. So the narrow blinkers will sit slightly further back and further out.

Awesome.

Thanks guys.

I can deal with them sitting a little further away. I bought repro wide clear lenses for my original blinkers and they were slightly too wide - making them sit funny.

I prefer the slim look anyways, so thanks.

That explains why the blinkers sit too far foward on my '66!

Years ago, I advised the panel beaters to use my Dad's 1960 Beetle (narrow blinkers) as a reference for the location of the blinkers on my car.

Tuffnt, I may have to copy your style!
