<div>Back in the eighties when I was buying euro cars in the US and sending them to France (primarily Jags) when currency and regs were favorable, I had several yellow lights and metric speedo kits to install on the cars headed to France. Once cleared thru
the bureaucracy the kit was removed, the US gear reinstalled and the French gear sent back to me for the next shipment. </div>
<div id="AppleMailSignature">I also brought some cars to the US until dealers got the US government to shut that biz down via "safety" regs. C'est la vie.</div>

a yellow/amber bulb, since all cars at that time had dual filament bulbs. The key here, I believe, is the shipping destination of Paris, France which had a requirement for these coloured bulbs. The UK did not.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
