Simon,

I assume you need all four chrome bezels?

For your use, any four bezels will work just fine. Your steel plates will be flush with the chrome bezel.

But USA-Pantera owners should be aware there are four of those, each a little different. Often cars are refitted with incorrect pieces. The left/front fender piece will work on the right/rear fender. Right/front works on left/rear. And visa-versa.

The difference affects the angle the reflectors are mounted. In fact, the Wilkinson reproductions only offer two versions. He will tell you there were only two-- he is wrong.

USA cars require the four, distinct styles to properly angle the reflectors. Not that anyone will ever notice.

The rear Euro cars just had body-color steel plates fabricated to mount in the chrome housings.

The front used a small yellow side-marker light, with bulb, mounted onto a similar-to-the-rear steel plate. Exposed steel plate painted body color.

I've attached photos. These side-markers are the same lights as found on the set I have from a Euro Pantera. There are many similar side-markers - be careful when shopping and buying.

The original Carello lights are rare. I believe there are now reproductions offered for sale.

Larry
