They are Jaguar ref DAC 3022 but not too easily available now. Some TVR dealers have them - just googled and find racetech have some - their ref is TVR Mo354 and price is £7.85 + VaT + carriage.

Just to let you know, I got mine from Hexham Horseless Carriages - 01434 601666 - £3.26 each + VAT + postage. Thanks for all the advice that led me to track them down. Cheers.

Tried a few months back to get Leven to knock up some more ally ones, but despite getting about 20 pairs 'ordered' through the Leven Parts Wiki that was up somewhere here, there was no interest from Leven. It might be worth seeing if the new ownership is interested in selling bits - the old one wasn't.

I would still be interested in a pair of smart ally reflectors.

Me too. A pair required, have tried everywhere but can't find them, would be good if they could be made available again.

Guy's, I contacted Jill at PPC before Christmas to see if they would consider manufacturing the door reflectors. They have now done their homework and Jill has got back to me stating that they are 'seriously going to pursue the reflectors and will obtain quotes. Obviously we may not get an answer regarding cost until February, then with manufacturing time I expect we are looking at end sometime in March. This will, of course be if people are willing to place orders. I believe the cost previously was around £37 and as this was some time ago, we would expect this to be realistically £40 - £45 but can’t confirm until we get a quote.'

If anyone is still interested then can you please let Jill know - Tel: 01664 481065 would be good to get the doors finished!!

can anyone find the red reflector bit anywhere?.. If so a small mould tool is not expensive or even made from Ali for the body... But would like to find a supply of the right size red bit if anyone knows...

I have these on my car and they are very nice indeed. Well worth £45 IMO.

Just ordered a pair from HHC, I am going to cut a piece of alloy sheet the same section and epoxy it to the back of the plastic ones and I hope "Bobs your uncle".

I've been in touch with Leven the last week or so and they will have these in very soon (if not now) along with lots of other ally parts that haven't been available for some time.

Naff'n expensive piece of bling that can only be seen when the doors are open!...

Now both of mine are FUBAR, I wish I'd bought them when they were first on offer, £37 seems cheap by comparison to £45 frown
