Looking for a pair of the seals for the front indicator lenses for the 3000M. Lucas lens part no. L867. Probably also need rear lens seals as well....
Thanks guys.

Lens' are from Triumph Dolomite. There seems to be confusion as to which is the correct way round to fit them - side light on outside or indicator on ouside. The hand book seems to suggest that the side lights go on the outside (that's how I've fitted mine), but I've seen them both ways round.

Wow! Didn't realise that theses are rarer than rocking horse s***! Had a ring around today and the best I could do was £90 + VAT for a pair of seals...!! OK, so they came with the complete unit, as no-one stocked them separately. As much as they're needed, I'd prefer a hole in my seals rather than in the bank account, so eventually found the answer at B&Q..... We've been doing our offices with laminate flooring and using sheets of foam underlay to prepare the surface, It just so happens that this foam is about 3mm thick, tough but spongey, just like the material used for lens seals...!! So, if anyone else hits the same problem, head down to B&Q and cut your own! Thanks anyway for your suggestions.
