That looks like the ones fitted to the Mantara, LM and Mantis models that I believe are from a MK1 Mondeo Saloon. I have never seen a Marcos fitted with Lexus Lights but look here > http://www.directcarparts.co.uk/buy-car-accessorie...

The lights in your link were sold by Marcos Engineering.

This company make a similar product for Noble - http://www.noblemods.co.uk/index.html - and may fit - however they do not have reverse and fog lights built -in to the unit, read the blurb on their site.
If you manage to find out if the Marcos Engineering ones are still available anywhere - (and I think that they are as a guy at the Pistonheads show last year had them fitted to his Noble and told me the name of the company - which I have forgoten) - please let me know as I may need to replace one of mine someday!

I was looking on ebay for some rear lights for my Mantara under 'Mondeo Rear Lights' and I think I saw some Lexus style ones there.

Did anyone manage to trace a current source for the 'afterburner' tail lamps for Mantis/LM/etc as once supplied by the now defunct Marcos Engineering? I am in desparate need of a drivers side lens but would happily buy the whole light fitting (a pair even). Any information please reply here or call John on 01727 824444. Cheers!

Dear All

I'm afraid I have bad news. Have just been informed that the rear lenses have not been found. I should explain that I have been dealing with the owner of Marcos and as such my information was (at the time) reliable. Have just received an email from him to say that both 'containers' were opened but the parts weren't found! Whether that means that they are still there but not reachable, that they are missing or that they never existed I'm not sure.

I am really sorry to have let you all down but I had acted in good faith with the intentiom of delivering a real improvement to an area of the Noble that needed it.

If I receive any more information I will let you all know.

My sincere apologies once again.

Mark

You may be interested in the reply re Quad Conversions on this thread on the Marcos Forum http://www.marcosforum.org/reply/21359#reply-21359... Apparently they are happy to do smoked lenses (my choice if I can get the Mantis over to them for a some proper measurements). They looked very good on a fliptone Mantis at Le Mans Classic last year.
