Try searching ebay or Google for 5 3/4" which is the diameter. There's loads of classic car specialists selling them as they've been around for donkey's years. IIRC, George Stepehenson had them on his Rocket...

I think you may have misunderstood what I am looking for. The plastic lens on the outside of the car. The oval lens on th eoutside not the lens over the lights

One of my lens is cracked and both are badly crazed on the inside.

I am looking for the whole assemble whcih has 2 black plastic back pieces

AFAIR someone here (Alex S?) has sourced aftermarket headlight covers (aimed at upgrading 2.5 and 3.0 model clams to 3R look). They aren't as thick as the OEM fitment but good enough.

3R type - lenses and backs factory (read as dealer) only

Early type - did not have outer lenses, but someone here had some made - Paul Cundy possibly?

The 3R and M400 headlamp plastic covers are standard Noble parts and available from the factory or dealer.

The GTO and GTO 3 comes from the factory without the plastic covers. The plastic covers were an aftermarket part that various people have manufactured including Paul Cundy.

Looking at OP info, they are from the States, so I'm guessing they are looking for the 3R/M400 type that are available from Noble or dealer:

Hope this helps!!

If you want 3r lenses you can't buy direct from Noble you have to go via a dealer.

You can buy the lenses from SW Lotus here
