Proper Bugeye marker light plinth is smooth, without the raised center ridge as pictured above. Just sayin' in case the car is a Mk1 and it matters to you.

They don't wear out and flea-bay used to be inundated with them. If you can't find one I'm sure I have one somewhere. Try britishmaster's.

It was obviously what Rod Stewart was singing about in "Plynth- Water Down the Drain"


"I was watching Michael Parkinson interview Rod Stewart last Saturday.
Parky asked Rod about his longevity in the rock business (40 years)
and Rod said ' I thought I might last 2 months or 2 years " All I
really wanted was to make enough money to buy a sports car, an
Austin Healey Sprite so I could pull the birds"."

Birds=girls. Tomorrow we'll cover why the E-Type was known as "The greatest crumpet-catcher known to man." :cheers:

LOL - I've been watching British car shows lately (Car SOS and Wreck Rescue). I love the colorful British slang. My new favorite new word is "Knackered". 1st two episodes of "Wreck Rescue" are about a 20 yo British girl restoring a knackered sprite.
