Can anyone tell me where I can get lights for an S3?

The original driving lights are CIBIE IODEH4's and the Headlights are Lucas DX150 LDB126.

Spent a day at Beuleau on Saturday and couldn't find either!

Thanks

Gatts,

Best place seems to LSUK (Lucas Spares UK). Their website gives a list of addresses. Try www.lsuk.co.uk

Cheers,
John.

Yep, got my Lucas driving lights from the Gillingham Lucas parts shop too. Only took two days and cost about £38.

The driving lights can be replaced with cheap Ring ones which do the job brilliantly and cost about £20 per pair.

I recently replaced mine with some of these and was surprised to find they were exactly the same as the originals! The "Ring" stickers peel off easily too!

Any 7 inch light would fit as fitted to such quality motors as Austin Maxis and morris 1100's although they are the sealed beam version
