Anyone have a glass for a Luca FT58 lamp

Unfortunately the glass lens on one of my driving lamps has cracked. I wonder if anyone on here has a spare that I could buy as a replacement?

But I wouldn’t bother as the price is a joke surely?

Especially as the same seller claims to have a pair of FT58?s, complete with lenses, for ?370

Looks like he aims to retire on the proceeds of his ebay sale.

Back in 2007, Michael Valentine recommended Vintage Headlamp Restoration International Ltd of Limestone Cottage Lane S6 1NJ tel 0114 285355, http://www.vintage-headlamp-restoration.com as he was very happy with the replacement P100 lenses they supplied. “Weren’t cheap but worth it”. Might be worth a try, they don’t necessarily deal in headlamps exclusively.

Thanks for the responses, I found a supplier on eBay and at ?25 I bought two just in case another ever gets cracked. 😀
