To the home page

The Rye Field Model kit "Bergepanzer Tiger 1" has two headlights, according to its instructions.

Headlight on the real vehicle

But the real vehicle didn't have two. It had only one headlight, on the left side of the roof.

Headlight parts to ignore

For a time in late 1943, all Tigers were built with a single headlight. There was nothing on the right-hand side, except perhaps the welded plate. You should not use these parts.
