I am looking for a set of rhd headlight lenses, I am wondering if anyone might know if the 1203 lenses (6.5" accross the face) are the same as anything else?..thanks

Hi Ben

I've got a pair of RHD RWD Octavias, built as fully UK spec' cars ...

My headlights have got tape masks on, as in the 60s/70s there were no regulations regarding beam direction.

Daverapid is an MOT tester and will be doubtless able to quote the cut-off years.

Whether you have different compliance as a personal import, I don't know.

Is your 1203 badged as a TAZ or Skoda?

Does it have oblong headlights?

The van has a 1500cc version of the 1221cc engine in Octavias and Felicia Cabrios, so I'm sure there will have been some raiding of the parts bin between contemporary models.

John Shelley (Skofast) on here has previously imported a 1203 to the UK for a customer, I think there's photo's of it on here in the Real Mk1 Octavias thread.

If you wish to email me directly I have a yahoo.com account under the user name scunnyskuds and a similar facebook account too.

Best regards ... Darren
