Default LHD headlamps for a 1983 Britannia - any information required

Dear Forum members,

we have been so lucky to buy a lovely 1983 Britannia at the 2016 Beaulieu Sale some weeks ago. We drove home all the way to our hometown Graz/Austria - 1.100 miles - without any issue, what a great car!

Now we will register the car in Austria, therefor we have to change th headlamps to lhd ones (for the continental rh traffic.

Bristol unfortunately is unable to supply these lights.
Does anybody know where these headlamps came from?
Some peaple say it is Talbot Tagora, otheres told me it sould be VW Scirrocco....

Our Britannia has got the narrow lamps, not the wider ones you see on some Britannias and Brigands.

I will attach a photograph of the car, showing the headlamps (and my partner Karin just some minutes after we won the auction....)

Any information would be welcome!

Thank you for your kind support!

Kind regards from Austria

Wolfgang
