Yep.

The best place to ask about things specific to a model is in the forum specific to that model. Chimp questions in the Chimp section and so on.

Be precise about what you mean. Crusty, or even Krusty units don't really make clear what part you are after.

Be prepaired that everything you say will be clowned with (groan)

The question was quite understandable for an owner that has a car with headlights :harhar:

Is being 'prepaired' a Griffter thing? It means nothing to us??

OP I think you may need to search for info on headlamp/light reflectors.

Welcome to the asylum that is TIVers on PH.

Post up saying hello and introduce yourself in the Chimp forum. I have no doubt that you will get invited down to a pub full of TVR’s near you. Other owners living near you will be a great help to you.

If you haven’t done so already buy a copy of the bible from here.

Its essential reading and will often tell you which car TVR got the part from.

This will help too.

You say your lights reflectors are duff. Do you mean the lights are dim? If you search around here then you will find many references to improving the lights. They were all dim.

If you look on the alternative parts list they are listed as Bosch part number: 1 305 314 930

See what I mean about being clowned with? I post a picture of Dave and he appears and picks up the line I fed him with just one extra ‘I’

Actually, we’re a comedy double act.

Obviously, as the Griff owner, I’m the straight man. hehe
