Where to get clear front indicator lenses?

[gavstar]

Can anyone tell me where to but these from? There was a chap on eBay that sold them for about £30 a pair but he's sold out. Any other places? TVR garage quoted me £35 each...
Cheers!

Cheers, that's a good site. Not quite as cheap as eBay, but beggars can't be choosers and all that.

Definately pay no more than £40 ish. They are reversing lights. I got fleeced by local dealer who sold me Tuscan indicators for £160!!!! saying these were the only ones you can get. NOT HAPPY. NOT HAPPY AT ALL.

Search on fleabay for Land Rover Military Lenses (or lights). That'll do ya.

You'll find them cheaper if you just keep watching and waiting.

These sold a couple of weeks ago

Wow that must have hurt, its the being taken advantage of thats always rubs the salt into the wound as well as the hole in your wallet is'nt it. Thats why, and of course hindsights a wonderful thing mind, its always worth a quick one liner on the forum no matter if subjects get repetitive, to pick the brains of the guys and girls who have been down a particular road.
Only been around here a while but the gen you pick up is invaluable, certainly gave me the confidence in viewing and selecting my car which I have had just over a month and enjoying every moment, those moments have been very few though lately with all this rotten weather we are getting. Sincere apologies for the complete ramblings that veered right off topic !

Thanks for all the pointers, chaps. Do you know - do I need the entire lamp unit or just the front lenses and frame with the screw bit?

If you fancy a drive down to Bristol, Dom Prout at Hamilton Cars will have his boys fit a full set of front and side clears for 200 quid or so.

The lens comes bonded to a metal screw/mount as one piece it then just screws in to the cap/bulbholder. Fitting is dead easy apart from a bit of skin removal, i also used a bit of superglue to fix it in place and sealed from the inside with silicone worked a treat.
Got mine from fleabay £30

How generous of him! Mine (inc side repeaters) were 30pounds, fitted by me.
