Vintage Tailight Question

Aug 12, 2003 1 Replies

I was looking for something else, and ran across some NOS VW Tailights on ebay. I said that they were good from 53-62 VWs. Just curious, but wouldn't the tailights have changed in 1955 when they when from with Blinkers instead of Semaphores. Here is the link.

He also says that they would be fine for a '62... I don't know how you would describe the '62 Tailight, but the one he shows is not "correct" for a '62... The '62 tailight was used all the way through '67 and was thus '62 was the first year for it.. :-)
