    Unfreaking real. As someone who just picked up a cabby, you are an inspiration. If I can get my car 1/2 way to this level I would call it a complete and total success.

    I fully intend to...
    I just picked up and '84 Karmann for $400 and am starting the teardown to clean up every usable part on it and start swapping them onto my cabby I like your style of clean-primer-paint every part. May as well do it right the first time.

    These must be the ones

    edit: though these ones don't have the orange inserts.

    OP do you have a part # from dectane? Love your car!

    edit 2: or is the orange just a reflection of the bulb? i think so

    x2 I think those are the best looking aftermarket tail-lights available, as well, for they just look "right"... They've got a "modern-but-OEM" look to them, as do the front turn signals chosen here. Perfect for this beautiful build...

    Thanks for sharing the well-documented progress!

    I ordered a set of those tails today. 80 euros shipping to the US! 'm heading back to the uk in a couple of weeks only 15 euros shipped there. Hoping they arrive before I get there. Chrome turn signal bulbs might be the way forward
