Hi Dave,
The over riders fitted to the MGB look the same as the MK1 but they are different. The cut out where it fits round the bumper is at a different angle so an MG over rider fitted on a Triumph will lean backwards.
The Triumph over riders have L and R stamped on the inside near to where the rubber insert locates, whereas the MG have MG stamped in the same place. It can be seen on new ones but on used ones that have a degree of rust on them, it can be difficult to see.
Don't forget you will need two Lefts and two Rights for a full set - each side fit diagonally (if that makes sense!) when looking at either the front or rear of the car.
You wouldn't think over riders could be so complicated!
