Default Headlight Differences

I just wanted to know if there is a difference between the AU2/3 Falcon and Fairmont headlights. I've seen some fairmonts that seem to have headlights that look more 'shiny' or 'chromy' and more clean overall. Could they be newly replaced items or is there a difference when stock?

Thanks.

im pretty sure that the fairmonts come out with chrome headlights, when i was looking for a new headlight for my brothers they all had chrome in the name. im ashuming that falcons use some other form, maybe just metal.. not to sure realy its the same on series one fairmont and falcons 2 tho.

I don't believe there is a difference.

AU1 - Falcon Light Grey
AU2 - Falcon Chrome w/ Clear Indicator
AU3 - Falcon Dark Grey

AU2/3 - Fairmont Chrome w/ Orange Indicator

Cheers

If you have a look on www.ozeparts.com.au .... it shows a listing of the different tyres of headlights available with pictures.
