I have a 250 with the white lens and amber bulb.
However NOTHING else on the car is original,
why should the those lenses!  The other two 250s
have the amber lenses.  From what I can tell,  the
TR5 has a glass lens same as the back-up, but amber.
I like the looks of that much better.  I have seen the upper
half of the rear lenses amber and red.  At one point it was
thought that amber tail lights was a European thing.  I don't
know.  I was looking at the metal behind the grill on the one
250 that does not look to be repainted and it was body color.
I believe that on TR250s and TR3Bs the factory put any equipment
they found around the shop.  It's a real crap-shoot at to what's "original".
