Pat; All TR250s came with an amber front lens on the grille. The upper
half of the rear lens was also amber. The back up lamp was a frosted
glass. The front fender ornament (the TR4A Bird) had both lenses amber,
whereas the 4A had a white lens on the front of the bird and amber on
the side. Jerry Oliver, Olympia, WA.
