Clear front indicators

[stumpage]

I want to change the front indicators on the Chim to the clear type. Any ideas where I can get them from?

Thanks.

Ebay, they are from a military source fitted on some land rover and Bedford trucks/ trailers pt no 56834. Used as reversing lights on them or side lights.

Make sure you get the ones with the internal reflectors and not just the metal back's..

Also, don't let the more unscrupuless TVR dealers sell you Tuscan indicators at £164!!! They are around £35 for the ones you want. I was took but it won't happen again, and I will NEVER set foot in that dealers again.
PS; you will need orange bulbs.

£5 from a Landy shop / parts dealer if they deal in ex-mod... Have a ring around... You'll save yourself a fortune!!
Got mine from a place in Huddersfield... can't remember the name but got 3 for £15 delivered...

Cripes! Why? (I couldn't even tell you without looking what colour mine are )

Is this the one ?

You'd get a lot of those for 164 quid !

Thanks for the help. Are these the lights?

I'm not sure now whether mine did or didn't have reflectors in them?

Get the Philips Silvervision bulbs and you won't have the fired egg effect. They are silver but flash orange.

Neither of those are quite right, it's the NATO reversing lamp you need. It has an internal reflector, like the original indicator.

Isn't it just a case of swaping the lens and bulbs and retaining the original reflector currently on the car?

Take a look at these... I would say the LHS one has the reflector... but the RHS one does not... They do look very dull if they are not fitted... But these are the ones.... Just clean off the green paint and screw your back on... No problem

Right, got these ordered along with some side indicators. Now where do I get the non orange but glow orange bulbs from?
