And what sort of price. I did see some on a tvr site and they were £80 each.

What type of lens covers? Front indicators or rears?

Ooops my bad just re read the subject title..... Dont know where you can get the head light ones from.

Fibreon is the person you need. Its not just as easy as putting the lens in though. You have to change the light pods too. The parts alone are around £400 (2 light pods, 2 new head lamp assemblies and 2 lenses) then the pods need painting. I have nearly finished doing mine just have to finish painting the pods.

www.sportmotive.com in Stoke do the conversions, if you give Ian a call, he may supply the parts to fit yourself.

I'm pretty sure all these kits that everyone uses as said above come from fibre but I know most tvr specialists will fit them but from what I gather its not the hardest job in the world and after seeing one done at home in the flesh painted out of a rattle can it looks spot on. Kits are around 300 quid for the headless, pods and lenses covers or around 6-700 painted and fitted.

Here you guy this is the car I have seen and spoke to him about it the other day, just get the kit, break out the Drexel and do it if you like it, I know I plan to, I was going to get one off eBay someone was selling but the bummer obviously sold it early outside of eBay!

I spoke with Phil who did his own and had planned to do the job myself. i bought the pods off Julian at Fibreon but then bottled it and got Ian at Sportmotive to spray and fit. Really pleased with both the original parts and the work that Ian did. Not sure what the price is now but from memory costs £600-£700

Talk to Julian at Fibreon, I'm fairly sure I paid him a lot less than £400 for the kit of parts. If you are a reasonably competent DIY'er its not too difficult a job, otherwise pay someone to do it for you. Fit the modwise relay kit while you are at it.

Ian.
