supcoach ◊ 2022-10-23 02:40	Came in DeLuxe (S-15-1) or Custom (S-15-2) trim
Lateef ◊ 2022-10-23 11:39	De Luxe
electra225 ◊ 2022-10-23 18:38	made for F for the yellow headlights ?
s13a ◊ 2022-10-23 23:39	Would that still count as 'made for F' in French Polynesia? @Lateef, out of interest, is it De Luxe because of the lack of stone guards or is it because of something else?
Lateef ◊ 2022-10-24 12:21	Yes. The stoneguards, fender script or the interior are the only ways to separate these as far as I know. The large dish hubcaps were optional on the De Luxe and standard on the Custom.
