Robert,
        I responded earlier to Paul that the US permitted only clear lenses and
bulbs until '68. I have had requests (George MariNOS?) for the "internal"
lenses that your Non-US Sprite has and have found they were not sold here.
I remember selling amber lenses (front and rear) for the European look
though they weren't legal.  Peter C
