All the type 3's I've had ( 66 squareback, 63 notchback and my current car, a 65 notchback) all had/h*õ©…wrap around turn signals. In checking catalogs, RMMW lists the bullet lens as fitting the 62-63 and 68-69 (p/n 315 953 161D, $11.75 each) and the wrap around for 64-67 (p/n 311 953 161D, $14.50 each). California Imports lists the same years for $10.95 and $12.95 each. My 63 notch had later fenders on it, which is why it had the wrap arounds. As far as the bullets looking "cooler", well, that's a matter of personal opinion. I prefer the wrap around on the early models much more.
