Hi,

I don't think they will be easy to find here in Australia

I've been looking for a Hella round red one like they use in UK etc for rear Fog Lights..

a very common accessory over there in 70s and 80s....maybe 90s??

like a Hella round driving or fog lamp only red...

maybe it will need to be some red model paint - see thru red not the ordinary red paint.. lol

cheers

All good mate, would be nice to find a set of rear lights though ! Sad to hear once hit the deck...ouch !

Paul, those rears and reflectors are for a Barny mate, only the brake light is right for your Yoot.

Buy the CIP1 that Klaus suggested, save a lot of heartache and $$ mate....
