    1973 RHD Markets ( S & RS ) - Headlight question

    I have just been checking through the RS book & noticed the 73 RS's for RHD markets were specc'd with Halogen Headlights as a no-cost option.

    I assume this means Euro spec H4 assy's were fitted to all RHD RS's ?

    Would I be correct to assume 1973 RHD 2.4S 's would have been specc'd with H4's too?

    I am trying to determine what headlights to fit to my car ( It came with LHD H1's )

    Thanks

    MY is not a good enough timeline for determining such thing, at least from what I have learned.

    I had a -73 S, a rather early, #0114 I think it was. That came with H1's. I think that they, in the same way as the the moved to 07R cases, did it during the production. So, hard to find out what was "original".

    RHD S's out here in Australia were fitted with H1's but not sure if this was std for the RS. we only had 6 original RHD RS's delivered here.

    I'll let Clyde Boyer answer this one as he's our local RS expert. Has also owned original RHD S's as well so at least he an comment on Aussie RHD cars.
