Hi Funsiz,
Sorry i don't have a pic with the lights on, but my 79 C3 has red blinker, stop and tail lights all running through the one light and all are red. My reverse light is the clear one.
However as mine is after the mid 71 introduction of the ADR rules, i had to change my wiring so that i have red tail and stop lights and then put the blinker into the clear tail light and use an orange bulb so that i have amber blinker and amber reverse lights. Hope that helps.
Jeff

Original setup had stop/tail/blinker all in red light, white reverse light was on its own.
Red blinkers are illegal and non compliant with ADR's.

Ahhh - if you had have asked a fortnight ago I could have accomodated! I've only just stripped mine back to the fibreglass ready for paint!

Mine is a December 1970 stamped car, is mine exempt from this rule?
