Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst.2/MA.30.9.33.

We have a pair of standard 20/25 headlamps removed from chassis 1.B.IV.

If we have these reconditioned 100% can you use the same up on production chassis in order that we can be credited with their value.

We have fitted to 1.B.IV. a new pair of the X166 headlamps.
