I think it has a beam, but the wheels are really wide..
The cord is I think for an engine oil pre-heater, which was common on Swedish cars |

Love the torque thrusts. Played out on just about everything but a VW. But since VW owners are so far behind the times, they work. |

Yep Mostly found on euro semaphore big windows. They even have their own style rubber seal. _________________ GFK

I thought they were most common on Australian cars.. I have a set of NOS ones for my vert, and was told they use the standard peanut style rubber seal and base?.. _________________ To his their own PBJ

Agreed that thing is bad ass. I checked out the whole build thread, and the metal work is outstanding to say the least! _________________ To his their own PBJ

The 'puffed peanut' lights were used on semaphore beetles as a retrofit for signals;they only require two small holes,as the bulbholder sits on top instead of through the fender _________________ die schwarzen Schafe #666 |
