Guys,

what do you think about backup lights used as turn signals? We rarely see these today :(
Was it popular back in the days? I saw a few period pictures but obviously less popular than Lucas!
I quite like them ;)

Those are stock Hella reverse lights found on 67 bugs, 67-69 type 3s and 67-71 buses and some other German cars from the same era.

I would not put it on my car, but I like it. It fits very well on these 2 cars.

prefer them on the blue car, might be the sloping headlights and their location that makes it more appealing to the eye
