lighting parts -

PostPost by: cabc26b » Tue Nov 25, 2008 12:51 am

Can somebody point me towards a source for lighting parts ?

Specifically I am looking to get the rubber parts for the little parking lights on the S1 as mine have perished. ( also need one chrome trim ring ) I should also get the rubber backers for the whole set of rounds lights

On a related subject I would love to source either a set of Marchal Ampilux or French Specification ( yellow) Cibie Iode's for the man lights so help here would be appreciated as well.

Thanks

Try "lotsofclassicbits" on ebay.co.uk. Great source of small hard to find stuff.

I bought 2 of those small parking light lenses (front) which included the chrome ring. Great quality (not cheap) I think you'd be able to fab the foam bit yourself.

Hi George,

Give vehicle Wiring Products a try. Their link is below:

http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/V ... /round.php

They are generally quite good for electrical bits and pieces.

George,
Take a look at Holden Vintage and Classic: http://www.holden.co.uk/
I've gotten quite a few bits for my Type 14 Elite there, they have been reproducing some Lucas items from original tooling.

Check out http://www.fibreglassservices.co.uk/ for any classic Lotus parts. They've been main suppliers for the factory for many years.

The front parking lights are the same on some models of TR4 so Triumph places would also have them.
