Hi
i've been trying to source a o/s front indicator for my 400se. I have bought some new ones (peugeot 505) from 2 well known Tvr specialists (and a used 505 one from ebay) and they don't fit !
The lenses are flat on the new ones, whilst the originals on my car have a tappered lense (the thickness is between 1 and 3cm) - anyone come accross this or know why?

I'm confused!

I just bought a front indicator for my 350i which was originally for a Reliant Rialto and it's a perfect fit so why
do I keep hearing people mention a Peugeot 505? Are there
two different styles? The Pug part would be much too long
for my car so I'm confused

Yeah the pug ones go on the 400 style body, the renault on the older 350i's etc.

Reliant used parts from other manufacturer's parts bins like everyone else. The indicator lights on 35i cars are from mid-life R12s.
