Post fibre glass body question.

Does any one know if this the full unit or just a cover?

Thanks.

I would guess it's just the lens at that price - Cassis tend to be pretty pricey & that seems cheap for a complete unit.

Roy has the lens too:

I'd suggest that if it says "light", and you only got a lens, you'd be well within your rights to spit the dummy. Also, the image seems to show the rubber gasket & bulb holder in there.

It won't be OEM, it'll be repro - and the quality may "vary"... Personally, unless I needed one in a rush, I'd wait until the French Nat'l, and buy some good used ones there. Or ask somebody like Viking if he could find some good used ones.

And the bulb holder. But explicitly says "Lens only" in the title.

I *think* spanners some similar from a van for sale?


I've been on the sauce though, so that might be factually inaccurate, or worse still, total codshit.

Same photo. One specified as "lens", the other as "light".

Yes, the pricing's seriously screwy, but...

Whatever the score, it's not Darren's doing - Cassis list them under the same part numbers as "cabochon" (lens) and "feux" (light), with the same prices (on the €1 non-member = £1 exchange rate.

Another question :

Would it be possible to make a 2cv shell from fibreglass and sell them off the shelf ?
