    Has anyone had any luck in finding a Ferrari/Alfa/Fiat front turn signal for a 308 QV? I only need the black plastic bezel that surrounds the assembly, but would settle for the whole assembyly if it included the bezel. Tried several of the usual sources already.

    That gasket comes with the housing ....not with the lens......I'll look at some spare complete units and see if it'll come off.

    I have two for sale, driver's side - but BE WARNED. They were/are NOT CHEAP. No crying/whining allowed.

    These units are NLA - NO LONGER AVAILABLE, and are being priced accordingly by everyone who has them. I paid well-north of $250 EACH for a new assembly, without the lense. I have a new driver's side unit, with-lense, I'll let go for $190. I have a used one without-lense, I'll unload for $80. PM me if you want one.

    both my ones are currently outside of the bumper and I can tell you that unfortunately the bezel is part of the whole 1-piece assembly.

    Thanks for the info and pictures. I haven't taken it off yet (or even looked closely), so can I assume it is a straight-forward job once I get the parts? Or is it one of the those projects where you have to jack up the car, remove all four wheels, and drop the engine to get at the one tiny screw remaining to complete the job?

    +1 Just pull the bumper for easy removal and cleaning of the area you'll find quite a bit of sand/grit gets behind these lamps. New Carello plastic needs alittle 'cutting' of extra tabs/flanges to fit into the 308 bumper insert - I used a Dremel cutting disc at low RPM and a steady hand.

    Yes, the housings are the same for the European and North American lenses....carrreaper has a bunch of the amber lenses as he changed to the bicolor ones shown there.......that will solve your problem.

    The 'new' one I have I bought from Tanner Enterprises, but never used. When it arrived, it came with a US Amber lense attached (no Carello mounting screws/washers, though) instead of the Euro lense pictured. They are perfectly interchangeable. Stock-up now while you can.....
