Series 1 3.8 OTS side & tail lamp mounting screws.

[eTypeG]

Where can I obtain the screws used to mount the side and tail lamps to the vehicle body for a 1963 Series 1 OTS, usual suppliers don't seem to do them.

Shpuld be chrome slotted special screws. Richard Smith has them.

Just to be clear...did you mean the screws fitting the plastic lens to the light unit OR the screws fitting the light unit to the car body?

I need the screws fitting the light units front and rear to the car body

I’m pretty sure they’re set screws(bolts)
If you check the jag spare parts book
Possibly page 293. BD20092/2. (1/2 inch long
And BD20092/6 (1 inch)
OR
Page 291
UFS319/4H
UFS319/7H

Give that a try

Many Thanks Robbie, do you know who sells them ?

Hi
I don’t think they’re specific to the lamps
I believe they are 3/16 set screws(UNF) which you can get from any supplier

1. Rear lamps
These appear to need 2 x 1 inch long setscrews and 1x1/2 inch long setscrews per lamp
They screw directly into tapped brackets on the body
They mention a spacer too but this may not be necessary
Some just use a self tapper for the outer screw

2. Front
These appear to need the same although I’m not sure about how long they need to be

I hope this helps
Otherwise David Jones is correct about the lens screws which can be purchased as described from Richard Smith
(SNG Barratt have cross headed which are not factory correct)
