after looking at your ur taillights and comparing to my euros:

- the euros are more integrated looking since the amber section is
continued across the top half.  i hadn't noticed this difference
previously, but i rarely get to see other tqw's.

- the euro center section is one piece with a german plate-sized opening
(surprise!), connected at the top with a narrow (~1") amber strip and at the
bottom with a narrow red strip.  i have noticed this difference before,
of course, since it effectively hides the top inch of my plate.

ps - i wasn't clear about it but i assume you used the v8 lock cylinder
merely as a filler and the latch mechanism is still from the center
lock?...
