Hi all,
I have the MOT coming up on my XM this Monday and a suicidal pheasant has taken out my passenger side (Left hand) side light lens.
I need a new unit pretty quickly but it is proving pretty damn difficult to source. Does anyone here have one spare or on a car that is being broken?
I can pay by paypal and need one as soon as possible.

Mine was blown out of the car last week - I got one in France. However, here's one on German ebay

edit - and another

I take it the one in Poland for £730 isn't tempting you!

I don't think a missing sidelight lens would fail an MOT test.

In honesty, a side lamp for £27 euros is a VERY good price really!

Paul the links /\ are to
E-bay.DE and the prices are in €'s not £'s and the €/£ exchange rate may vary dependant on time of purchase too !
So I searched thro' to the German E-bay.de (From Charles links) but using the actual item no's via E-bay.uk so that you get the English page version which gives you the Approx. prices in £'s !
There currently showing as
#1 LINK :- £22.92 + £18.07 postage = £40.99 and
#2 LINK:- £22.23 + £20.54 postage = £42.77
Which is quite a bit more than £27 (or even €27)

Crikey - didn't look at the postage. I paid £15 for the sidelight from France and about £12 postage.
