    Either.  The higher quality lights of the ‘02 era (right through 1977) tended to have chromed steel or polished stainless steel housings. Chromed or black plastic was used on less expensive lights.
     
    The ‘60’s were heavy into chrome, but the late ‘70’s were moving rapidly into black plastic. It is no coincidence that the square taillight cars started to replace shiny metal with black plastic trim, e.g., the grilles went from anodized aluminum to black plastic.
     
    In 1976, I went with chrome for my then-new ‘76, but this was more my choice of brand, Marchal, than anything. The photo was taken April 1977.
     
    On the other hand, I probably wouldn’t consider anything but chrome for a round taillight car.

    Black plastic seems to fit better a square tail light, but lately I’ve only found chrome driving lights for sale.
  2. I have a 1974 Tii euro specs. It in great shape but the previous owner put a direct switch for the cold start valve. It was the easy way to go because here there are only about 6 Tii of the over 250 02's.

    The cable was chopped and now I was willing to make it work again as it was ment. I asked for the parts missing to Blunt, but today I received the bad news that this part is NLA.

    I would like to here some advice how to make it work? Is there some way to buy the connectors?

    A picture or my Inka.
