Did the lens disintegrate or just fall off the body of the fitting (like mine did once!)? If it's still intact you can put it back together very effectively with silicone sealant.

Hi

Thanks for your help.

The earlier one, I think, on the 740 with long radiator stripe.

It's 180mm high, and returns approx 90mm on side of car.

Picture attached, (hopefully)

I have one from an 'F' reg 740 - nearside only - so if Rick is only prepared to sell as a pair, I could maybe help!
