Interior Courtesy Light Needed?

[Dave85chim]

Hi Chaps

Does anyone know where I can get interior courtesy light. Been looking at the usual on line retailers and two breakers but so far only one (pretty manky looking) has turned up.

Does anyone know what these were from?

Are these not in stock?

Try a search for these, I think they are correct on4s but you need to check

Not sure if it helps, but I think it's TVR part no: M0218

Could always try some hydrogen peroxide on the yellow one?

Isn't it an Escort Mark 2? This one looks the same, if pricey!

I used one of these, fits the same hole (might have had to file out a little fibreglass) and the bigger flange hid some damage to the vinyl

A bit off topic but does anybody know if an LED lamp is available for the courtesy light?

Yes but ....... in the interior lamp the bulb is wired back to front, live to the case and earth to the tit on the bottom. Not a problem with normal bulb but an LED won't like it!

An interior light is useful for two things:

1. Flattening your battery overnight if you leave it switched on and
2. Eating a MacDonalds in the car after dark (as I discovered this evening - I don't have an interior light).

I got mine from here - https://www.classiccarleds.co.uk/collections/inter...

Very helpful, and works perfectly.

Yep, that should solve the problem

Thanks Chaps - have just purchased a replacement so we will see - I have also just purchased a nice LED bulb too! ( along with a blue one too to match the dials)
