Curt,
Never too much info as far as I'm concerned. How about you and Roger doing a
book like the Viart XK 140 book for the 100.:)

for the rear, and clear lenses are on the front. The lenses are all marked
"LUCAS 488 MADE IN ENGLAND". The LUCAS ones I purchased from MOSS some 20
years ago were spot on correct.

possibly late BN1s) all had clear lenses. They are the same part number as
the clear non frosted lenses. In fact some years ago as I was going through
around a dozen boxes of NOS 488 lenses, I found that while the numbers on the
original LUCAS boxes were all the same, three of the twelve or so lenses were
frosted. I purchased these three.

488/B MADE IN ENGLAND". If you have a clear lens and want a frosted one, just
carefully bead blast the inside of the lens and the results look just like the
originals.
