Hi everybody...

I want to know if July 1957 Oval window beetle (Europe) has orange or yellow lenses? Also, if there is any difference being SHO or SWF.

Thank you!

So July has dark orange, very hard to find original ones. SHO and SWF both orange.

So according to your chart all 1956 type 1's should have orange lens and not yellow?
