Surely you must be asking about
all S30-series Z rear lights, and not
just those of the HS30 models?
The Japanese home market ones ( Red sides, stoppers and parkers / Amber indicators / Clear reversers ) are the same as what most of our UK market HS30 models got.
The all-reds are - I think - what the USA / North American spec HLS30-U got.
If you want to play Part Number Bingo on rear lights it all gets very complicated. You might be interested to know that the Factory parts lists gave some numbers on the rear lights that were described as "Exc France" ( excluding France ):
*26550-E8100 ASSY-LAMP COMBINATION RH ( EUROPE ) EXC. FRANCE.
*26555-E8100 ASSY-LAMP COMBINATION LH ( EUROPE ) EXC. FRANCE.
It seems that - for the Factory - "Europe" may well have meant France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Holland and Germany. I get the feeling that they included Switzerland in that as well (?).
Australia and New Zealand market HS30 models can also have surprising specs and differences.
So what did France actually get rear lamp colour wise? Were they the "Amber" type indicators as shown in the French sales catalogues?
