However these were still in use on the 1954 Minx Phase VII which used the same door that had a cut out for said trafficator on the saloon, and deleted on the Minx Phase VIII. dsl wrote See this attempted list. "Sept 54 - Minx went to Phase VIII (central bar in grille, 1390cc OHV engine) but the only mentioned Commer change was flashing indicators (so semaphores disappeared??)"
