No idea, but Shubee on here has posted pictures a couple of times with the rough positioning. Check out Fabs' (Speedwell) thread on the rebuild of his '61, and Louis B's In Da Werks thread about his car. Of course, mine will be different because I'm going for Europa bumper holes and Lucas indicators!

those report are the one i scanned some times ago from the hot vws  , maybe it's the correct position , but on the report it's for a US 67 fenders
here're the tread with the lucas on my 61 , but know i don't know if there's a correct position , i put mine  ar the palce it looks better for me , now you can choose your right place  to put them  ;D

here is a picture of my car set up with lucas lights. I, like speedwell, put them where I thought they looked good. just have to mess around with tape cutouts and see where you like them. I will look for the installation pics and try and get them up.

A Good Rule of thumb for installing Lucas Lights is to tie a string around the headlight ring screw and line the string up with the top of the oval bumper slot it ends up being to one side of the horn grill opening.When using this method the string should go through the center of the indicator see Picture this is A really good explanation of how to locate them.

This is where they are on my 67 sedan.

Here is an updated front shot of my set up. It is really pretty simple to do. Let me know if you have any questions.

Yours are perfect. That is where I was shooting for with mine.
