Clarence Ha scritto:since a replica of the garage vary panel is on ebay i looked for alternative tailights, yesterday i was talking about alternatives with Achilleas and seem we checked every round tailights available in europe, they are too big or too small or too expensive...
mazda porter are 133mm
smaller lights are about 120mm
bigger are 140mm
i think bigger would look better but will require working on FRP or spacers
smaller is a good solution and is cheaper
Exactly. The 140 mm lights wont even fit the outter cavity of the panel.
Then there is the need to fit them to the car and them being watertight...
If someone dont have any means for DIY better spend on the porter cab.
If someone can do some DIY and wants to save money, he can buy the lights I bought.
I will try another solution soon as well.

its not only about saving money or diy, that tail was design around those lights to get the old style mood, changing them you will change also original design idea, just to talk...

What's the price difference between the porter lights and the others you're trying?
nmwisima NA6 - nmwisima - 20-11-2012
The Porter Cabs are about 150 euros + taxes if applicable and the Reverse light is another 50-60 euros to import.
These are at about 100 euros posted and I m planning on closing the reverse light hole.
Pepi, the old style mood? Some might say that the Porter's are not "old" at all, while the lights I choose are mentioned for classic cars.
But you are right in one thing, the panel is meant for the Porters.

Corvette C3 with some modifications could be a good solution
