  Cuz i saw 818J on 65 jus now.The Lebuhraya 80/90 speed limit sticker is still at the same position.But now,the Aduan LPKP sticker has been moved to the quite middle of the rear jus next to the SBST logo and the sticker is also much longer than last time..There seems to be more words written on tat new sticker.I cldnt see wat those words were abt cuz i was standing at the opp side wen i saw the bus and it went off aft tat.

  It is part of the headlight system. It is usually used during the morning/evening period when there's no need for the headlights to be fully on.

  I know that some Box Bendies, Scania Striders and ELBOs don't have them or are misplaced in another position. Some examples are below (two or three from each of the above-mentioned model, with and without the side lights as well as misplaced side lights)

  Scania Striders:

  

  ELBO:

  

  Box Bendy:

  Yeah for the Hispano Mercs,Scania Striders and the Elbos,i know they hav the extra thin headlight long ago.For tis buses,those lights r more clearly visible cuz they r placed seperately away from the main headlights.
  
  As for the both Volgren Mercs rigid/Bendies,i jus ony noticed them cuz tat extra headlight placed so near to the left/right signal lights.So hard to notice them.

  I don't think it's a typo. Rather, I think the text was changing from "Geylang Lor 1 via Kallang Bahru" to "Geylang Lor 1 Ter / Kallang MRT".
