Well my high beam light cover came off who knows when. I was just wondering if anyone knew what to replace it with or what?

Cut a tiny circle out of a colored file folder index tab. Glue it in place with a drop of super glue.

Neither my tac or spedo have the light covers in them nor are they inside the case.

Which color goes on which?

Was of the impression that Bugeye lights were both little red discs.

The real facts as per Horler in OS&M are:
Bugeyes;

Speedo, SN 6155/10 or SN 6155/11, RED ignition warning light
Rev counter, RN 2351/02, RED high beam warning light
These 'warning' lights had small plastic flat disc's

Sprite Mk-II & Midget Mk-I's had;

Speedo, SN 6126/00, BLUE main beam warning light
Rev counter, RN 2313/00, RED ignition warning light
These 'warning' lights had small "jeweled" plastic lenses.

Too bad the sections/paragraphs aren't numbered so we could just reference OSM Section 12, Paragraph 13.
