I must be just lucky, I've had at least 14 or 15 2000/2.5's since 1976 and I cant remember in all that time ever even changing a bulb in any of the indicator repeaters, I've never had to take a lens off for any reason. And they still work on both sides on both cars

Re: Indicator Repeaters.
Without labouring the point, wasn't the NKC part no. only a replacement number when many of the 6 digit part numbers were replaced by 3 letters and numbers, i.e. 150924 became GCP195? I'm certain the actual lens was the same, but had a new style of part number. I still have only seen three types of lenses, and I'm sticking to that!!!!!

Re: Indicator Repeaters.
Finally found that CW article last night (February 2005 edition of Six Appeal) and happy to admit that it too quotes only three types of moulding, i.e.
- Mk1 PFL: flat face, open top
- Mk1 FL / early Mk2: flat face, closed top
- Mk2 FL: curved face

Re: Indicator Repeaters.
I recall that perhaps three or four years ago Chris Witor was canvassing members to gauge the level of interest in having these remanufactured. He was collecting e-mail addresses, but in never heard anything further so presume that there was not sufficient interest . I think he was proposing to do the late Mk1/early Mk2 flat ones. Both lenses on my 1966 Mk1 are cracked/damaged at the edges and one has been replaced by its previous owner with the later curved type. I would certainly be interested in purchasing the flat type if they were remanufactured.

Re: Indicator Repeaters.
Yes I was looking at the ones on my Mk1s and thinking the same thing.
I'll have a word with Chris and see how things stand. As you say late type late Mk1 would have to be the ones to go for at the moment I would think - probably a reasonable number of curved type around at the moment so not necessary yet.
I'll speak to Chris and maybe do a poll on the two Fora.

Re: Indicator Repeaters.
Luckily they're small and very simply designed. It should be pretty straight forward to produce a cheap nested* injection moulding tool in aluminium and get a batch run out.
