That's not a Type 34 license light lens. The 356 and Type 34 used Hella lenses that were far more oval in shape. No idea where these were used.

But, http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=733325 Mine do not look quite as tall as the ones in the ad. _________________ GhiaBuild http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=481184 1967 DC build https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=693583&highlight=67+dc Stop dead photo links!
