I am looking to obtain some clear side indicator lenses to replace a damaged lens to suit my blue Chim. Does anyone know which parts bin the original lenses came from or who supplies clear lenses.

Any advice appreciated.

Halfords do some stick on ones which fit. My mate got some from Direct Car Parts which were excellent quality but had a metal retaining clip which damaged the leading edge of the hole. IIRC he took off the clip and used some double sided sticking foam to attach them

They're Ford, but Halfwits do them.

In fact everywhere do them!

About £10 a pair and you'll need the orange bulbs too if you go clear.

They are originally Ford Fiesta/Escort/Mondeo/Ka from the early 90's.
As has been said any motor factors will have them in clear for about £10 a pair, if you like a little more 'bling' they are readly available with led bulds and in just about any colour you fancy.

Although some of the early chims had round ones which were off a Fiat i believe. Most have Ford ones though.

Agreed. My mate just bought a Transit and now has great joy in pointing out the similarity between a Transit and TVR!

I was after these as well for my blue Chim, is it true that they are held in with black silicone though?
