After buying a new set of driving lamps
for the S3C many moons ago i got around to fitting them today. Replacing the old broken and yellowed ones for new really has made a difference. And only 4 skinned knuckles to.

replaced mine as well, few weeks ago.
it was such a pain to get the new lights in, that I almost decided to put the S into the shuttle for the dark side of the moon.
If I was to rate the most crappiest piece of design on the S, I would put the fixation of the driving lights on the podium, after the steering rack of course....

Found my set of 2 lights lying around for many years at a mecanics here in Luxembourg. But this won't help you much. Try www.davidgeraldtvr.com They are specialists for older TVR's and might help you, as these driving lights from Lucas are not available at all times...
