Porsche Crest SWB vs. LWB?

I have a '69 912, Can anyone tell me:
1. What is the difference between the SWB & LWB
2. If front fenders from a '66 will fit a '69?
3. Are rear bumpers interchangable?
4. Are turn signal lenses interchangable, between years?
(I am aware of the different trim on the front lenses)

Starting in '69 Porsche stretched the wheel base a couple inches, most noticed by looking at the distance between the rear torsion plug and the rear wheel well area. LWB models have longer rear trailing arms/banana arms. Rear bumpers could interchange. Front fenders from a 66 could interchange but you would have to use the early turn signal assemblies 65-68 if you used the early fenders, you would also have to use the older horn grille's since the 65-68 are wider than the 69-73, I think I am correct in saying that the 66 had 4 screw horn grilles and the other early ones had 2 screws holding them on, only 65-68 turn signal assemblies are interchangeable and 69-73 interchange. Very Good condition or new turn signal assemblies can also be very expensive to replace (the whole unit that is). Hope this helped some.

Hope you have the early horn grills. They are $$. In 66 mine are 2 bolts. I may have a line on some 69 parts what do you need.
