Mitch,

I went through this exercise just a few months ago for my TR6 
restoration.....I needed a couple of rear lenses to complete the entire rear 
and side marker set.....the big three (or any other source) couldn't help me. 
 Fortunately, I was able to pick up 2 NOS lenses at the Triumph Spares Show 
in the UK back in February; the remaining acquisitions came from parts cars 
which buffed up like new.  If you need rear side marker lenses, be sure to 
get federal spec lenses with provisions for lamps - the UK cars don't use 
illuminated side marker lenses.

Are there any UK folks out there that may have contacts with venders from the 
Spares show that could help Mitch?
