[QUOTE="gvee, post: 543434, member: 14750"] So it seems that for a UK bay, pre '74, there will be only one mounting tab in the headlamp bowl on the front panel. Because of this the only thing that will fit is 3 screw headlamps! U.S. buses are apparently different. I believe they have 3 tabs so later lamps (or mk1 Golf) lamps should fit without modification. You can make later lights fit earlies but you will have to weld on some extra securing brackets and use the single screw rims. P.S. If you've had a new front panel just pop a headlamp off to be certain! [/QUOTE]
