Due to stupidity ( not my own I hasten to add) one of the sidelights on my
Series One has been broken.

Has anybody got a spair lucas 488 type sidelight lens or two to swap for
some beet tokens?

Thanks in advance,

Have you tried a Mini (proper Mini, that is) specialist - they can source
some lenses that are very similar.

These'll likely be from Gordon Equipments Ltd.. 01255 555200
www.durite.co.uk

There's a complete light unit 0-162-00 with lens only 0-162-99. I've no
idea if the lens will fit the original Lucas base.

the early minis have the domed glass ones with the chrome retaining ring,
IIRC, for sidelight and indicator.
