Indicator unit with lens & seal (SWB). Porsche 911/912 1965-68 ❭ 90163140
- Porsche 911 1965-1968 2.0L / 912 SWB (F)
The OE Match Indicator Unit with Lens & Seal (SWB) is a premium-quality replacement front indicator assembly designed specifically for compatible short wheelbase (SWB) Porsche models. Manufactured to OE specifications for fit, appearance and durability, this complete unit includes the indicator housing, lens and sealing gasket, providing everything required to restore the vehicle's front signalling system to its original factory condition.
Fits:
- Porsche 911 1965-1968 2.0L / 912 SWB (F)
Manufactured using a high-quality UV-resistant lens, durable moulded housing and weather-resistant rubber seal, the indicator unit is engineered to withstand exposure to road debris, moisture, UV rays and changing weather conditions. Precision-manufactured mounting points ensure direct OE-style installation, while the included seal helps prevent water ingress and protects the internal bulb holder and electrical connections from corrosion.
What This Product Does:
- Provides a clear front turn signal indication.
- Improves vehicle visibility to other road users.
- Restores the original appearance of the front lighting assembly.
- Includes a weather-resistant seal to prevent moisture ingress.
- Protects the bulb holder and electrical connections.
- Supports safe and legal road use.
- Provides direct OE-style fitment.
- Forms an essential part of the vehicle's exterior lighting system.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Cracked, faded or discoloured indicator lens.
- Moisture or condensation inside the indicator housing.
- Water ingress causing electrical faults.
- Loose or damaged housing.
- Corroded bulb holder or electrical terminals.
- Reduced light output or poor visibility.
- Intermittent or non-functioning indicator.
- Damaged or perished sealing gasket.
- Lens becoming detached from the housing.
- MOT or vehicle inspection failure due to defective lighting.
Why Replacement Matters:
- The front indicator unit is continually exposed to road debris, moisture, UV exposure and repeated temperature changes. Over time, the lens can become faded or cracked, the housing may deteriorate and the seal can harden or perish, allowing water to enter the unit and damage the electrical components.
- A damaged indicator assembly can reduce the visibility of turn signals, increase the risk of electrical faults and compromise road safety. Moisture ingress may also lead to corrosion of the bulb holder and wiring, resulting in unreliable operation and potential MOT failure.
- Replacing a worn or damaged indicator unit with the OE Match Indicator Unit with Lens & Seal restores reliable signalling performance, weather protection and the original factory appearance. Manufactured to OE standards using premium-quality materials, this complete assembly provides factory-style fitment, long-lasting durability and dependable performance, making it the ideal choice for Porsche restoration, repair and preventative maintenance.

This is a high-quality front turn signal lens seal engineered to match the original Porsche specification.

• Application: Front turn signal light lens seal/gasket - mounts between the turn signal lens and body panel to provide a weather-resistant seal.
The turn signal lens seal forms a weatherproof barrier between the turn signal light lens and the vehicle bodywork. It prevents water, dust, and debris from entering the light assembly while ensuring a snug fit of the lens. A proper seal helps preserve the integrity and lifespan of the lighting unit and maintains the clean, finished look of the vehicle’s front end.
Original turn signal seals can become brittle, cracked, or deteriorated over time due to exposure to sunlight, heat, and weather. A compromised seal can lead to:
• Moisture and condensation inside the light housing
• Corrosion of bulbs and electrical contacts
• Dust and dirt buildup, reducing light output
• Poor fitment and aesthetic gaps.
Replacing the old or degraded seal with a fresh gasket restores the proper interface, improves durability, and helps preserve both function and appearance of your classic Porsche’s lighting system.
Replace the turn signal lens seal if you notice:
• Water or moisture inside the signal lens
• Cracked, brittle, or missing seal material
• Excess dust or debris behind the lens
• During signal lens or lighting assembly service

Although often overlooked during maintenance and restoration work, indicator lens seals play a critical role in protecting internal lighting components and ensuring long-term reliability. A correctly fitted seal helps preserve bulb holders, electrical connections and reflectors while maintaining the factory-correct fit and appearance of the indicator unit.
For restoration projects, concours preparation and routine maintenance, replacing ageing indicator seals is a simple but essential step in preserving both functionality and originality.
What Do Front Indicator Lens Seals Do?
Front indicator lens seals create a watertight gasket between the lens and lamp housing.
Their primary functions include:
Preventing water ingress Protecting electrical components Reducing internal corrosion Preventing dirt and debris contamination Helping maintain lens clarity Supporting long-term lighting reliability Preserving original fitment and appearanceA properly functioning seal helps ensure indicator assemblies remain protected from environmental damage.
Symptoms of Seal Wear or Failure
Rubber seals naturally deteriorate over time due to exposure to UV light, weather conditions, heat cycles and age.
Common signs of worn indicator lens seals include:
Cracked or hardened rubber Water inside the indicator housing Condensation behind the lens Corroded bulb holders or terminals Flattened or compressed seal profiles Dirt accumulation inside the lamp unit Poor lens fitment Visible deterioration during inspectionOnce a seal loses flexibility, it can no longer effectively protect the lamp assembly.
Why Replacement Matters
Replacing worn front indicator lens seals helps protect expensive lighting components and maintain the authenticity of your classic Porsche.
Benefits include:
Prevention of water ingress Reduced risk of corrosion Protection of bulbs and wiring Improved lamp assembly longevity Restoration of factory-correct fitment Better weather resistance Improved restoration quality Preservation of vehicle originalityFor early Porsche 911 SWB models, attention to small details such as indicator seals can significantly improve both vehicle presentation and long-term reliability.
