which rear lights fit at a 2cv with "hatchback" ?

i need help to find some nice rear lights for my projekt car.
i really don't have an idea what to put at that rear.

the backlights should have an e-sign or another aproval mark..

they should look oldschool.

help me or i will put some modern LED ones at it ! :)

here some pics of the car. sorry, pics are really fucked up.

thanks a lot for your help!

if someone has some nice ones in stock..please post.

hello Malte,

Why don't you try with the small old original 2CV lights?

Because they are not "E" marked, so it's illegal to have 2cv lights on your 2cv in Germany

There are some piaggio (vespa) tail lights that looks good, the oldies (but w/o E sign) and some new retro look.
Motorcicle tail lights are a good option, because some have the angled fitting.
Its awesome how a green leds light makes a red lens bright in orange for turning lights, neat trick used by peugeot in his 307 and audi.

Malte,
Look for some Hella lights.
We did also used them on our pick-up.
They are small and good quality.
But then you've got to make those lights in your bodywork, not on the body mounted.
I think that will have the nicest look.

And, they are "E"-marked.....
Very Happy

Greetings

If you click on the link you can see what I mean.
You've got them in the size of 55mm.
And those are just a few examples, go to a helladealer and ask for the folder.
It's in dutch, but if you use the articlenumber you can check for it in germany.

Good luck with it
