Mike I have a '73
No foil in the new ones. If there NOS they will have them, but it costs
about 40 plus dollars for replacements.
The ones from the big three are replacements that fit, but don't even
come close to the look of the originals. I really like the NOS ones so I
have new electrical holders and an NOS right side lens. I'm still
looking for a left side. If you need two older good enough ones for a
daily driver, then I have those if you need em.
I also have a new set of those lenses that are for sale by the big 3.
If you want them I'll sell them at 15 bucks a piece if you like them,
that is the replacements that don't use foil.

Subject: Side Markers lamps 1974 TR6 (Amber lens replacement question)
My left front amber color side marker is cracked and the right side is
chipped.
I removed the units and examined each unit before ordering a
replacement.
Each unit has a silver foil reflector located between the original Lucas
bulb
housing
and the amber plastic lens. Is this original or was it installed by the
previous owner.
The units shown in the moss catalog looks like a molded plastic
reflector. I
am
not sure if the reflector comes only with the bulb housing. If I order
the
lens only will
a foil type reflector come with the new unit or do I recover the
original foil
in my old unit
and reinstall. Also the units in the British Victoria catalog do not
show a
reflector for their
units. If any one has replaced their side markers please drop me email.
PS my repair manual does just not show a reflector when replacing the
bulb.
