Fascinated by Knight Rider, Joao from Knight Passions had the idea of recreating the car from the TV series over 20 years ago. His first front was the “Classic Front”, at the time freely designed based on the images from the TV series. He founded Knight Passions and began selling the front and other parts to other enthusiasts of the series. As one of the first professional suppliers in this sector and with top quality from the very beginning, Knight Passions has secured a first-class name in the scene worldwide and the “Classic Front” has become the world’s best-selling and installed KITT front for replica builders.
This front does not quite match the look from the TV series, as the angle between the “upper lip” and “lower lip” has become somewhat acute. However, it is precisely this steep angle and the somewhat sharp edges that are the striking features of this front. It was also often copied by the competition and even model cars from KITT were designed with this front. It has its very own charm and look and is still very popular with many replica builders.
The size of the scanner opening is 3 cm (1.2 inches) high and 50.5 cm (20.2 inches) wide.
The front is available in two versions:
- Season 1 - with large cut-outs for the turn signals, which are then covered by the turn signal blackouts. Production possible on special customer request.
- Season 2/3 - without cut-outs for the indicators. After season 1 and the pilot film, the front of KITT was produced without the cut-outs for the indicators, but the demarcations for the covers were still present and clearly visible.
“Grill bars” are available for both versions. These are the strips in the slot openings for the fog lights.
