    Front badge colour?

    From 1971MY the badge is Pastel White L90D, same as the bumpers. Unless it is a Deluxe model, then the badge was chrome.

    Just for clarity, Mk I Golf headlights fit 3 tab headlight bowls as fitted to US/Canadian market buses. Euro buses that use the Hella headlight setup with the 3 screw rims don't have the 3 tabs in the headlight bowls, unless the front panel had been replaced.
