I always thought they were mini/mgb ones.

Thay'd probably fit but would be chromed metal, Wedges usually had back plastic ones. IIRC those on my car are GRP and have signs of someone trimming them with a saw/ file to make them fit around the lamps!

thanks for the replies.
Thinking about it mini ones do not fit as they are screwed on with the screw hole being on the top of the cover and the pod body prevents you from getting a screw driver in. My plastic ones are screwed on with the hole being horizontal, I guess these are bespoke ones ???

The black ones on that site look very similar with what looks like 2 x screw holes

At £30 plus postage its a bit pricey for a pair to try ummmmm ?
