LC and LJ had them untill end of 72, seeing as the parkers were intergrated into the indicators. I assume you could fit them to LH or LX as long as you use orange globes. Probably best to check with you road authority.

Up to 73 can have white font park lights (6watt max) & a white indicator (21 watt) in the same assembly, 73 & on must have an amber front & rear indicator.
A clear lens is will meet the ADR if the globe emits a strong amber light from it.
On the clear lens covers i fitted i had to paint the backing of the indicator housing silver to get the amber light strong enough.

with a little mod you can use a orange bulb with the clear lens. one the standard clear bulbs the bayonets are at 12 and six 0,clock. on the orange bulbs they are 12 and 4 o,clock. just grind or file off the 4 o,clock bayonet and just leave the 12 o,clock one and fit that. the bulb can sit a little off centre but it works ok.

As Toranamuk and lx5008 said ^^ & ^.
We went thru all this when I was selling the clear lenses for the LH/X.
Put the amber Commodore globe in and you're all good.
Some of the later indicator housings actually have two keyways, so check before grinding a bayonet off.
Is this what you have, or some of Rares ones?

I was thinking about gettting some from Rare Spares, but just went and got the orange ones. Diddnt want to have any problems when getting a Road Worthy.
