    None that I have found dreamin'. In fact it was only on the Series 1 from 55 to 57 ish and then not the only lights used.

    To be honest I am starting at the other end of my 107 and working to the back.

    Paul,

    There was a mob (in Brissie I think) that did a lot of Massey Fergusson parts. These things were priced well and looked the same as the side lights / indicators which you are looking for. They also did the Pre-Cleaner for about $20. I recall "Tractor Imports" but am not sure. Someone here may be able to help out.

    But then you could check out this fellas ebay store:

    eBay Australia Store ? MD Tractor Parts: Search results for.

    Also sells lights which are very close looking to the butler lights for the early 80's

    Pork pie lights of the fifties were fitted to many English cars. One that springs to mind was the Riley 1500 and the 2500. Also Sunbeam and some MG's... most were even chrome plated, very smart indeed.

    Oops I meant the D lamps, the above refers to D lamps

    They originally called it Ripoff. The new name is much better for business.
