THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS?
Yikes -
And here I was bitching about dropping a grand on a real
Bosch complete lens set with silver trim for our '71 911T
restoration.
Seems if we buy a newer Ferrari we also need to invest in
"crunchables" such as bumpers, light cans and lenses. Then, place them in
a Halliburton Zero 21" carbon fiber carry on and place the whole mess in a cool
dry place.
Thank God the Italia only has two tail lights - THE reason
to buy one.

Darn good thing as the only available front driving lamps for
the 512TR are for French version cars or Euro version. A pair of them will
relieve you of a wee bit over $3k.

Anyplace that sells the 3M Clear bra would have that stuff. Not a bad idea for
the 348/512TR owners as all those lamps are approaching extinction if not
already there.Brian > > > > Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2010 04:29:51
