Hi All, I believe I may have been supplied the incorrect rear lamp chrome housings for my series 1.5 FHC the number embossed is L651 from the information I can find out these are from a DHC what difference is there between the two?
Many thanks and a happy new year to all.

I take it that your series 1.5 still has the rear light units above the bumper? Anyway, I have always been led to believe that the shape of the body is different at the point where the light is fixed , so your light contours to the body will be incorrect if for a OTC. That said, if you have done bodywork on the car and it has been led loaded etc , then the only real test will be to try the original lights to see whether they sit nicely against the body.

andrewh is right. The chrome rear light bodies of the Ser.1.5 are different between DHC and FHC.
I know because I once bought the wrong ones
The difference is quite remarkable.

Thanks for your reply chaps, so L651 lamps are for an DHC what number represents FHC lamps...

Cheers, Julian.

Hi Julian...have a look in the knowledge base section..technical.....the parts catalogue will show the different part numbers for the different models
