DynaMike ◊ 2007-11-16 22:35	French headlamps were the same as almost everywhere else, except the yellow bulbs (and of course made for traffic on the right side of the road). And indeed, I've seen a lot of these protection bars on Paris Minis. -- Last edit: 2007-11-16 22:36:13
chris40 ◊ 2007-11-16 22:56	That's what I thought (about the headlamps); I fitted Cibié headlamps to my (1963) Mini without any trouble. It just seemed odd that they were missing on an otherwise tidy car.
