Default Headlight bars

I have looked in catalogs and did not find headlight bars. Will 30-31 headlight bar work on 28-29 Model "A"?

Are the cars and "AA" trucks the same?

It might "work" (that is, it might fit) but the 28-29 has a flatter profile between the headlights than the 30-31.

They will work, but look out of proportion when when you have a 28-29 Bar on a '30-31 and vice versa.

Luke is correct, my 31 had a 29 headlight bar on it when I bought it. I finally now have a correct 31 bar that will be going on in the next couple of weeks.

Yes the cars and trucks use the same bar.
