Position of Heart Shaped Tail Lights on Guards
crsedge - May 18th, 2011 at 03:43 PM

Hi All,

I have a '54 oval that over the years has been modified, and I am going to take back largely to original (at least in appearance!) It currently has 1500 tail lights fitted, and I have a set of NOS Hearts to put back on :cool:

Does anyone know where there is a template or description of exactly where these fit on the rear guards? The old holes have been welded up when the 1500 ones were fitted.

Cheers

Craig

Guides like that are why Snowflakes on Australian Beetles are too high - hearts are ok though.
