It's certainly time consuming to remove the black paint on the anodised trim...

[mrar]

That's a later 1/4 glass going off the insignia if it is 69, do you think the frame is too?

I have no idea. How would I tell?

You could try the paint stripper see if the black is anodised.
look at frame below belt mould and see if they prepped/painted the whole frame.
May not have spent prep time in this area, would show up silver anodised in this spot.
At end of day you hopefully have yours redone in correct finish.

Reading http://www.audettecollection.com/a-g...-turn-signals/ and playing with my front indicators. What's the point of the reflector/diffusor in an ROW LWB front indicator? There is no bulb behind it right so why is it there? Or should it not be there in an ROW front indicator?

I think the US version has the reflector, in the RoW version it is replaced by the city light ?

[Terminator]

It should be there in ROW and yes there is a small bulb at right angles to all other bulbs. Just in front of the reflector.

I will take a pic for you tomorrow as I have yet to re install my front indicators

Thanks Clyde! That's the same as mine so all good. I was talking about the clear plastic diffusor piece, looks redundant for ROW.

I have this horn array, which seems like it's from a 73 maybe? But missing the red trumpets? Maybe I should find someone to swap them with for the separate 400/500Hz snail horns?

[Terminator]

Ahh I mis understood and those horns are not from a 73 911

[generalsmirnov]

Correct me if I'm delusional Terminator , but did you have 69 horn mount brackets on ESR at some point please? I am missing the right hand side one. The ones that angle forward as per this example:
