Marchal Fog Lamps 670/680 (yellow bulb) - Ebay item number: 4571238745
12 volt, 5 1/2".

You need to specify 12 volt. This is always a good idea on any electrical part, as they will usually assume 6 volt if they assume anything. If your already ordered its not big deal you can buy the 12 volt bulbs and put them in.
Try NLA. I'm gonna give them another chance and order a set of 12 volt Marchal fog lights. NLA also has mounting kits for the lights. By the way, I noticed a job posting ad for NLA in the Sept/Oct 356 Registry Issue. Looks like Brad is trying to make it a point to have good customer service. "NLA Limited is looking for a knowledgeable person in Porsche Parts Sales.... Excellent customer service skills are a necessity..." Anyhow, I was pleased to see the ad and they do carry fine products!
But Derek, you are right they want to sell parts and they don't want to mess with people ordering an original style reprodution part and then saying it won't fit on there replica.
Don't expect things to snap right on if ordering a part that might mount differently on your car.

Gary, I saw you picked up those lights. That EBay vendor has those for sale from time to time. Let me know how they work out. I'm holding off on fogs for about a month to let my checkbook catch up with my runaway taste.

I have a number of original Marchal lights and have run some 'cheapies' as well. Not long ago I bought a pair of Marchal reproductions from NLA. They are very bright and look cool but they are rattling apart where the body of the light connects to the little 'neck'...
There doesn't appear to be an effective way to twist or cinch them back around a turn or so in place so it looks like they'll have to come off, get tightened, then re-wired. A good case for speed-clip connectors.
Mike, you camping out at Steele's place these last few nights?

I had my fog lights installed with quick connectors hidden behind the body of the car. I felt like it was being a little paranoid, but it sounds like maybe it wasn't such a bad idea after all.
Hey Mike,
The fog lights have just arrived and they look great.
There is another set of Marchal fogs on ebay now......
I'm looking for a vintage style switch next.

Paul,
Might as well have been. He's been supplying the shots, I'm going by tomorrow for a last run through, then looks like I'll be in business one night next week.

Make that next weekend. The car is taking a trailer ride down to A-1 in Orange County for a custom exhaust fitting. I saw the seats today in the shop and its all I could do not to take one home with me. Alfredo (JPS' upholstry guru) does phenom. work.
