Re: Headlight Grills on Speedsters
Porsches did not have parking lights built into the headlight assembly at least through 1957. There are no bulbs or holes for bulbs in those early Hella SB headlight housings. The parking lights on the 356 and 356A T1 were built into the front turn signals which were dual filament bulbs connected to two separate wires.

Re: Headlight Grills on Speedsters
Thanks for the part number details Don. Here's the pages from the '55 parts book (Speedster supplement).

Re: Headlight Grills on Speedsters
From the 1957 parts book. I notice that they are labelled "No longer available". Perhaps this is a version of the '57 parts book published later? Maybe this section of the parts book came out later?
