Anyone know a part number for one (or two!) of these. I know that there are plenty of replacements available out there.
Can anyone recommend one please? I presume that they're from a mini?
I already have two new outer headlamp rings.
Cheers

They are classic mini headlamps. Minispares sell the whole thing less the actual lamp for about £15.

Some of the aftermarket trim rims are too chunky to fit the S series bodywork but I don't remember which ones were problematic so you'll have to take your chances.

You probably already know that you'll need to add your own short retaining strap to the outer trim ring so that you can screw it to the bodywork.

Depending whether you have Lucas or Wipac (or other) headlamp bowls they could be a little different, might be worth get complete assemblies scratchchin
