| COPY. BY/RD5/W.29.6.34. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} WIRING FOR TAIL LAMP. ALL CHASSIS. When we introduced the Bentley we wired the rear of the car for stop and tail lamp on the right hand side only, using two single adaptors. Since we have introduced the Lucas Stop and Tail Lamp and the double adaptor we are purchasing the double adaptor for the price of one single one. We, therefore, propose to wire all cars in future with the double adaptor on both right and left hand sides because we have had a large amount of work to do wiring up cars on the opposite side for people who want two tail lamps, or ask for the additional adaptor, similar to what they had on their earlier Rolls-Royce cars.
