Fleabay, come up quite often, have replaced mine as the metal rim was corroded to the point of no longer being in one piece when removed....

Cheers, Al.

How about these ones on fleabay item no. 261229179466

They seem cheap but are not the clear lens. However, I think originally they were from a Jag. The reason I say this is because I needed to buy the white covers once and it was a Jag part.

As mentioned - airport 35.

There are two versions - a fog and a driving lamp (just different glass).

I bought a grotty pair off e-bay and refurbed them, but have since managed to pick up some brand new replicas for about a fiver each at the Notts Autojumble.

They are identical to airport 35s, only just aren't stamped cibie.
The seller had dozens of them, although I took one of the last pairs in black (as originally fitted to my car).

It was actually the Newark Autojumble, not Notts, but you get the point!

These jumbles are surprisingly helpful for our cars. There are often specialists with a lot of New Old Stock parts - I managed to get my replacement brake master cylinder through one, for example.

I always have a rummage through any switch-gear I find too.
The centre console switches are getting difficult to find at sensible money. The eelctric window switches seem to be hewn from solid Unobtanium!

If the song is from the 80's and called flashback then the Band was imagination I think. Lead singer was Leee (with 3 e's)John smile
Can't say the lyrics are ringing any bells though.

Good lad Zig

Takes me back to when i was an old soul boy who on the QT listened to all genres.

Chastised on the way to a Caister weekender in the MK2 Cortina playing Fascist Groove Thang by Heaven 17, and some Joy Division.

Had to stick Bobby Womack on before i was dropped by the roadside !!

Remember "Is Vic there"?
