These taillights were produced until july 1967 only It may surprise you but the 1200 'Sparkäfer' kept these taillights, along with the older bumpers, until 1973 (German production), while the whole range finally got the 'elephant' taillights and square bumpers for 1974 (1200, 1300, 1303 and the Cabrio)
