tail lights on a 280sl.
« on: July 16, 2022, 19:07:44 »
im interested in buying a 280sl that is listed on BaT.    There have been some questions on the tail lights.   Can anyone tell me at what point they went from all red to yellow.  Thank you!!

Replacing any lights is costly. Nothing inexpensive on these cars!
