[Mk2] [Turbo] "E" markings on Turbo Rev4+, please help

Post by smoke »

Hi there,
I got my NA rev 4 imported in Belgium and now I'm playing with the conversion of the headlights with EU spec unit.
I'd like to know if also the Turbos Rev 4+ have all the glasses and the lights with the "E" markings (as in mine, also the roof ones!). :-k
If someone is so patient, I'll ask also of the harnesses. :D

I'm planning to buy also a Tubby in the future and I think this is mandatory staff... :cry:

Pretty sure my Rev3 Turbo has e-marks. If not then just get yourself some lights from a locally delivered car of the same age.

Thanks Marf.
Actually you are right, headlights are not a big problem.
Windscreen, windows and all the glasses may be another oreder of expense... :oops:

They should all be E marked. I know the wingmirrors, rear lights and sidelights are all E marked but I couldn't tell you about the headlights because I run aftermarket ones.

I'll check my headlights at lunchtime, they're stock.

Nope, no e-marking on the lenses.

Would be worth getting someone with a UK car to check too.

Yes. It's not the actual glass on the wingmirrors that's marked, it's the mirror units themselves. I've got a photo of the back of the mirror glass somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it out.

It's ok, it is the same on mine.
I thought they started to mark all around on Rev 4.
I'm happy!!! :D
It seems I can import them :D
Tubby tubby, I'm coming...

Already with double fog lights, isn't it?

The front lights have to be changed anyway in order to drive on the other side...

Actually all the turbos are without the Certificate of Conformity, so it is a big mess anyway...
