| -2- We are sending herewith a print of the layout of the instrument board D.CD.612 and would be glad to have your views as to whether it can be fitted to 2.B.5. If so, we will send you a dimensioned drawing of the board and its holes. It will be noted that the instruments have not interior illumination, but are illuminated by a lamp in the scuttle rail. We would be glad to hear whether you can accommodate a lamp in the position drawn, which is immediately opposite the instrument patch. The lamp we have shewn is that which we are told is standard and was supplied from Lillie Hall. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. Car Project Office. | ||
