Tail light question, what year?
Hey All,
I have a new Splitty, But I often have a new splitty so no one need be suprised!
My Question is this,
Why are my Tail lights low compared to other Kombies?
According to the West coast metric info my new Kombie is a Dec 59 Model, However I have been told that Aussie VWs can differ from the American
information.
It has the original 9 Seats still inside and I am well immpressed with him, "WILSON" is his Name.
Can anybody clarify why and which models have just one tail light per side and why mine are low compared to most I have seen, the information seems a
bit cloudy for me in this reguard.
Heres a pic Of Wilsons rear
62 Ragtop Herbie with a little extra oomph.

mmm- something's NQR. Does it have semaphores or nipple indicators on the front? If semaphores its pre-59 and it should have a centre
brakelight decklid.
If it has the nipple indicators on the front
its 59+ and it should have the round amber indicators on the back as well as the round red stop/tailights...
??????????????????????
