I’m glad you can still get them at the dealers!

Which side? If it’s passenger side then it’s difficult to source.

It’s not in stock…so my guess is no go..
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Fixed the rear indicator..
I stripped and cleaned, dry the small! Amount off moisture out.
Seems to have done the job, as good as new

I would seal the gap between the lens and back unit with an adhesive/silicone to stop the water getting back in again

I had the same issue in Aug/Sept, touch wood, no reoccurrence to date

I was too late to offer OP my spare 2009 rear offside lens. I know these are in short supply right now. £180 delivered, PM if interested.
Also got two brand new pink salmon relays, £25 delivered. PM if interested.

Oh, I have the near side lens as well. Usual failed indicator problem as it got wet, no cracks or other damage. Has a new seal attached too. Open to offers spares or repair.
