The documents that I have shown belonging to this same post. Do they belong to the American market? I understand this from what you say. But ... then, what number was the rear light kit for the German market? Is there a document where the kits are named?
    After two years and multiple brochures (as well as accessories) all discussed in the thread it was just confusing..

    I tend to trust the original parts manuals first and then brochures second.

    The rear crash bar is shown as an option in the 71 parts manual with the different bumper over rider called out to go along with it. It is also called out in my 72/73 parts manual. Interestingly I just learned something new today that I didn't before. For 73, the parts manual lists the chrome over rider for the crash bar for the T's and E's but, not the S or the RS. For the S and RS, the manual calls out the BLACK over rider with the crash bar. I don't think I've ever seen a picture of that configuration.

    Considering the '73 USA requirement that spawned the big clunky rubber over riders, I doubt that the rear crash bar would have been available for the USA market in '73, thought the manual doesn't state it. Does call out the rubber over riders as USA specific.

    Also in my 71 manual, the rear fog light is listed for markets EXCEPT USA, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland.

    So, I think it is safe to say that a brochure intended for a particular Country (market) would not list options that couldn't be delivered to that region.

    Zubehörpreisliste 3.2.1973 shows M569 crash bar as an option for T/E/S but not in combination with 411 (black overrider), while in this case the black overriders are the Rilsan black coated metal ones and not the US plastic ones.

    Well then the '73 parts manual and the '73 brochure don't agree. Which is correct? Odd that the parts manual specifically calls out the black over riders for S and RS.
