I need a replacement n/s driving/fog lamp for my S3C. Does anyone know of an alternative source other than TVR in the Oxford / Reading area. It has a Lucas label in the centre so I am assuming I can get one from other sources if I can find the part number or donor car. Any help appreciated.

I could do with a new pair of driving lamps, anyone know of any lucas dealers in the midlands?, what sort of price are we looking at? I've looked on th lucas website but they don't list stockists.

It's worth fitting some stone chip protection, you can get stick-on headlight protection film for a few quid. Mine survived a 3-figure excursion into a gravel trap at Zolder, unfortunately the surrounding bodywork isn't looking so clever. Cheers, Peter Humphries (and a green V8S)

Woody Thanks to Steve's part numbers I got one today from LSUK (Lucas Spares UK) in Reading. The first place I tried said I could only get one from Lucas. The price was £38.08 + vat and they had to order in from a central stock. The invoice says the company name is Pinco 1555 Limited trading as LSUK. the phone number for Reading is 01189 861202. They may be able to give you a central number or even a local branch.

JSG Thanks for that, i've just found LSUK's website (www.lsuk.co.uk), might be worth Ted posting the details on the parts list, they've got 64 branches around the UK.

regards to the parts list, any further info parts etc that can be added. I have some sort of list for my S3c, some part numbers that have never shown up on list at PH. If you want a copy email me direct, perhaps we can expand on it. Steve Parker 91 S3c parkersteve@ntlworld.com
