Best I've found is full retail price. Barnett TVR have none left and said thay are hard to get hold of. I called tha factory who said they are still producing them and the rather sarcastic parts guy sugested I try another dealer.
So basically I would be interested to.

if you do a search you will find the part numbers contact etc listed in the forums, they are a valeo part.

Here...

Pebbledash - From another thread said:

The driving lights for a Griff are a sealed unit,
The ones of the 500 are a Cibie SC unit Valeo part number 082348.
you can get them from the Cibie UK Reps, Lewisham (020 8297 1439)

Thanks Pebbledash. I had done a search previously and called a rcommended supplier who said the Valeo units were no longer available, but I will try this number now.
Cheers.

probably a daft suggestion but have you tried the breakers?
Bell Hill garage in Bath or Douglas Valley in Wigan.
