[QUOTE="naskeet, post: 632909, member: 15903"] Many of the North American specification, 1968~71 VW Type 2s, which had factory-fitted reversing lights, had their reversing lights repurposed as [B]amber[/B], rear direction-indicator lamps with [B]amber[/B] bulbs, after being imported second-hand into Great Britain; rather than substitute British & European specification, complete rear lamp units with an [B]amber[/B] lens for the rear direction-indicators. Although British specification, 1972~79 VW Type 2s were fitted with the tall rectangular rear lamp units, incorporating a colourless lens for reversing lights, few if any vehicles, apart from the deluxe microbuses, were factory-fitted with the transaxle-activated switch, in-line fuse holder, bulb holders and wiring to provide the reversing-light function. This is relatively easy to do, if one can still source the required parts. [/QUOTE]
