Without one to compare, from memory, looks pretty close. I don't remember them having an actual hinge like that, but its been a long time. I suspect theis one may have plastic lenses - the original, I'm pretty certain, were glass.
how close are these to the original D Light ?
anyone know

I have one of those ebay D lamps on my 86" and it is identical to the original D lamp on the other side, with the exception of the chrome screw on the top. The original one is just a black phillips head screw.
Yep , look like the origional ones on my 80" . I would give them a nine & a half out of ten.
Some of the UK electrical suppliers have them.

The original ones appear to have
- Slightly different lampholder
- Only one hole at the back, for cable entry
- Different thread on studs
- ST51 Lucas Birmingham Made in England stamped above bottom stud.
Mounted on the car you probably won't be able to spot the difference.
