Chasing a set (2) of the glass lense indicators for my Series I

I want to get it back on the road, I used to have a set of these on my Series IIA and I assume they were Landrover items

If you can't readily find originals, check the lenses available in this catalogue Car Builder Solutions Ltd. Kit car parts. Spares and accessories for the car builder enthusiast. (http://www.nfauto.co.uk/cbs_products_index.htm).

You probably know that indicators were not a standard part on most S1. The most common retrofit is the Lucas 594 with the amber dome lens and a single filament, although some people use a clear dome lens and a double filament for side and flasher (white flashers are permitted on a pre ADR vehicle like the Series 1)

If you want similar for the rear but don't want to drill the large hole required, you can fit an aftermarket L594/flat which uses a festoon globe. Check some have a plastic lens, but you can get the glass L594 lens as a spare part.

BTW the side lamps of the 1954-58 were L489 - which are similar to the L488 but had a wider stainless bezel as can be seen by the first image.

In fact the double contact side/flasher (stop/tail) bub holder assembly for all the L488/L489/L594 lamps can be fitted into the L489 to keep the original appearence.
