TEXT:

I recently received and reviewed a copy of your Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 201. To facilitate my more complete understanding, I need your clarification of two issues. Please forward your response to the following questions.

Does your Standard No. 201 apply to:

o Passenger cars manufactured between January 1, 1968 and September 1, 1981?

o Instrument panels manufactured for replacement of units damaged by collision, exposure to sunlight, etc.?

Your prompt response will be greatly appreciated.
