'ARCTIC' ANTI DAZZLE HEADLIGHT. X4555

Replying to RS{Sir Henry Royce's Secretary}1/M3.11.26. We have hadno experience with this device.

We have a pair of Lucas head lamps No.RB{R. Bowen}-71 which we could send to the makers to fit up with the anti dazzle scheme. We think however we ought to point out to them that we do not supply head lamps as standard on our chassis; although we recommend Lucas, they are charged as extras.

We think it would be more profitable to the makers of this device if they got Messrs. Lucas to adopt it.

We shall want to know what address to send these lamps to.
