you can convert American ones without much hassle. They're also a nicer looking light IMO.

You don't need reverse lights

You know Rolf-Arne and his white Scarab - I believe he still has his Yankee red lights !

Also, what do 'vette and 'stang importers do - change their lights...and if so - to what ?

Anyone else from NORWAY here? It would be nice to gather all of us vikings to share info and simulare stuff. In that case please add your, email, skype name, facebook, adress/place you live.

Maybe we can make a gathering with our Z's

Stian - I don't think you need to convert to euro spec taillights, I'd look that up. There are plenty of old US cars who still have the red rear indicators.

Both my Z's still have their US spec rear lights - only one has number plates, though.

Not so simple and besides, over here we have these - different again : red over orange - NO reversing lights.

 

[morbias]

Surely that's even easier to wire up then?
