Lamps, lights. Parking lights, running lights. Whatever you call them, Datsun 1200s have them.

Also see: Wiring

North America lights

Contents 1 Headlights 1.1 High-power Headlamps 2 Side Lights 3 Front Lights 4 Rear Lights 5 Rear License Plate Lamp 6 Customized Lights 7 Driving Lights 8 Operation 8.1 Headlight Switch 8.2 Turn Signal Switch 9 Interior Lamps 10 Lamp Specifications

Headlights

Large round headlights from *any* car will fit. These are type 6014 for a two-headlight system (a single large round headlight on each side of the car). These are "dual beam" lights, encompassing both regular and high-beam in the same light.

Alternatively, and recommended, H6024 is a halogen replacement. Halogen is a brighter light, and now available in shades of blue, gold, white. Street-legal in USA.

High-power Headlamps

H4 euro-type, Halogen, etc that require upgraded wiring.

Halogen

Side Lights

• Side lamps come in two sizes: small and large

Side lamps are larger on North American models, also the fenders come with a larger hole to match. Euro/Asia guards/wings can be used on America 1200s, if the hole is enlarged.

USA - Large running lights

Other countries - Small running lights

Front Lights

• Front running light lenses are either all-orange or white + orange

Reportedly the lamp housing is different so that you cannot simply swap lenses.

Sedan:

Europe, Australia

Japan, America

Coupe and Sedan front lights are the same.

Coupe:

Australia

America

early ute

Rear Lights

Rear light lenses are either:

• orange-red-white, white-red-orange

or

• red-red-white, white-red-red

Orange & red: Australian market, while all-red in America, Japan and South Africa markets.

Sedan (USA)

Sedan (Australia)

Coupe: long and thin. Sedan: short but tall:

Coupe vs Sedan Comparo

Coupe closeup

Wagon and Sedan (Australia)

GL Sedan (Japan)

ute

Van (Australia)

Sedan (portugal)

Sedan (Europe) - orange blinkers

Sedan (USA) - red blinkers

Later GLs used a different taillight:

• 

  1972 GL

Possibly it was the same as Coupe or PB110, but with a different trim surround:

• 1972 PB110

Rear License Plate Lamp

For USA market, the rear number plate light changed in 1973 to meet higher government standards of illuminating the plate.

Early license plate lamp (on top of bumper):

Late license plate lamp (dual lamps on either side of plate):

Customized Lights

• Square headlights

  

• Quad headlights

  

• Clear lamp lenses

  

• All-red rears
• White-outside rears

  

• Coupe rear lights on Sedan
• Supra lights on Coupe:
