When did European cars get the side markers? My 69 Canadian GTV and my 69 GTV originally purchased in the Netherlands had no side marker lights - both cars were unmolested.

All of the Euro 105/115 series bertone coupe (1963-76), from the Sprint GT all the way to the 2000GTV, had front side markers EXCEPT for the Sr.1 1750 (1968-early 70).

I thought so, too, and contended that on another thread but according to Papajam and the parts books they're supposed to have two-piece armrests. See these threads:
1750 GTV Series 1 Door Trims & Steering Wheel
Door handles etc for s2 1750
So I'm going to restore my two piece armrests. The one-piece ones sure would be easier. (I have both sets)
