Their stuff is good, but it looks like they're a Britpart outfit, so that's very worrying.

Wow! Didn't know that.
My most recent experience of Britpart:
Replacement indicators on a series, fitted gently in December, zero miles.

I was disgusted. I know they are cheap, but they aren't fit for purpose, and price is irrelevant. I'm tempted to report this to VOSA, as they are brake components, but I expect they'll do nothing.

That is not a britpart issue that is exactly the same with all of the cheap light units, bearmach, wipac etc! They are all terrible and even if you do get them to fit without breaking in 12month (if you are lucky) the bulb holder will wear so the bulb vibrates loose.

Yes. I'll try the "Lucas" branded history range next. The lenses are made in Taiwan, despite the "ENGLAND" embossed on them.
Not sure if that's a good thing or not...

OP didn't give any details as to what they already had. OP was asked to supply. As yet OP hasn't responded. OP was pointed in the direction of Lucas parts. OP was given pertinent information regarding the quality of Lucas parts in comparison with other Britpart brands.
