So tell those of us who don't know. What's rare? Clear color? Shape of lens? They are side marker lights?

From a clubmember who gave up the hobby :wink:
They are obviously used, but in exceptionally good shape. Originally only Italy got white turn-signal lenses iirc...

I love the clear lenses! They look so much better than amber. Nice score! I can't wait to see pics of them on the car. :)

Maybe if/when I visit a club meeting :roll:
