Front Lamp
<-- back to Lighting_System#Front_Lights
All 1200 body style use the same Front Combination Light Assembly (Coupe/Sedan/Van/Truck). But the specific type varies by country and by year. USA has single-bulb, Japan has dual-bulb. Sunny Truck after 1973 has dual-reflector type.
Overview
Datsun 1200 was fitted with four or five different Front Combination Lamps, depending on the year and country. USA and Japan got all-Red, while other countries got Orange+White lamps.
Australia Indicators (orange) + Clear Parking Lamp Japan I Indicators (orange) + Orange small Lamp North America Indicators (orange) + Orange large Running Lamp
ANZAC/Europe - dual color lens
Body Style
All 1200 body style use the same Front Combination Light Assembly (Coupe/Sedan/Van/Truck).
Early Versus Late
Sunny Truck 1200 after September 1973 use a dual-reflector lens. Earlier 1200 Trucks use the standard 1200 single-reflector lens (same as Coupe/Sedan/Van).
1970-1973 - single reflector
1974+ dual reflector (starting September 1973)

The dual-relector lamp uses the same lenses as B210, but the housings are different in that 1200 has bullet connectors, while B210 has multi-connector. Interchange 1200 with B210: Probable, but requires wiring connector change. This likely uses the same casting molds as EUR/AUS lenses just in a single color.
