Originally they only had a single round light (Fiat, as you said) on the 
front fenders--none on the rear.   The front turn signals were also different and 
unique from any other De Tomaso product.   I believe they were lifted directly 
from an Alfa Romeo?   Or maybe Fiat.   I can't figure it out at the moment.   
They bolted directly to the body, there were no front bumpers so they didn't 
attach there, and the cars predated the L-models so there was no turn signal 
housing to hold the stock turn signal.   I believe they had an angle in the 
lens, a sort of V-shaped protrusion, and they were clear.   Slightly smaller than 
the standard Pantera unit.
