    Did the original stock version come from the manufacturer with a clear or amber lense for the driving/fog lamp? I'm trying to restore to factory original and I have seen both? Interested to hear feedback from your vast knowledge. Thanks.

    I've only seen clear. I bought an '82 new, and it had a clear lens.

    Amber lens in '81, clear lens therafter. AFIK that was done worldwide, except France may have gotten the amber fog lamp for the whole run ( I have no proof of that though).

    The yellow ones were outlawed in the North America (if I recall correctly) and all '82-83 came with the clear lense.

    All UK came with yellow (fog light...since I beleive that is what it was intended to be, originally, more than just a simple 'driving lamp....all 'fog lights in UK were yellow, France USED to have a compulsory need for all yellow lights at the front....at least in the 80's/90's)
