A lot of the codes were used twice on different models for different things. This 605 code as the "headlamp wiper unit" is the part that applies to the w123, not the "limited-slip differential" nor the "trim strips on hardtop" - they apply to some other vehicle.

It's saying beginning on January 8, 1971 option code 605 is "headlamp wiper unit and licence plate bracket". The reference to limited slip refers to an earlier use of 605.

So in this case it means just the headlamp washers?

I wondered about the trim strips on hard top....that sounded like something for an sl.

It is an interesting option list is it not? The car was ordered for the Amerithon Ralley which was to have been run from california to the southern end of argentina, back up to Alaska and then back to California. Unfortunately the ralley was never run, though this interesting car was prepped for it and brought to the us and eventually converted for road use.

Yes, by necessity option code numbers get multiple assignments over time. The Russian site shows them all, and you have pick which one is applicable based on the production date/year of the car. It is an interesting car.

Does anybody have a picture of a pine green fabric interior?

I think I will look for one so that if I want to I can put it back as it originally was if I want to.
