I know i've read a post about this before but couldnt find it and the 'search' is taking day to find anything so i'll ask it again !
Wheres the best place to buy a set and how much are they ?
Also what are they like to fit ?
What holds them in place ?
Saw a guy selling them on flea bay a while back but can't find any now.

Proper Tuscan ones are about £60 each. You can use others which are a slightly different shape (I think TVR used them on the earlier cars before they had the other ones made) but a lot cheaper. I think they were Lucas Landrover reversing lenses?

They aren't too bad to fit, but the old ones can take a bit of getting out, depending how well they were glued in the first place.

Cheers Marcus. This sounds like quite an adventure ! Not to sure about the whisky tumbler idea although the clear glass look sounds nicer than the frosted plastic.

I took mine to Central TVR, seemed far too much bother doing them yourself. If I recall they didnt break the bank (absolutely no help I know)
