V8S number plate light

[mstrutt]

Hi

Can someone tell me what car the rear number plate light is off. Earlier versions were TR7 but mine is different and I need to purchase a new one.

Thanks
Mike

Do you have a picture?

Could a previous owner have changed it?

Seems strange that TVR used a different light when the Triumph lights carried on to the Chimaera and Griffith.


No doubt some V8S owners will be along soon to clarify (i.e. tell me I'm talking nonsense)

High again Chris, can you get that added to the Alternative Parts list? I was looking for one some time ago.

Added under Electrical :-)

This is what my number plate light looks like and judging by the hole in the body its looks like an original fit with no holes as per TR7 fitting.

I think thats possibly a vauxhall interior light astra/cavalier era

My Mk1 Astra had that as interior light.
Turned on by pulling out side/headlight switch discovered after a few weeks of ownership
