MG MG Farina Magnette - Lucas part numbers?


Does anybody know the Lucas part number for the tail lamp lenses on Mk IVs (presumably the same as Mk III)?

My factory service manual gives these as:

Stop/tail: 47H5293
Flasher: 47H5291

But I need the Lucas part numbers. L695?

Thanks,
Allen

Hi Allen

I have checked my Lucas book and if your Mk4 rear lamp is the same as my Mk3 then its a Lucas L646 - I am sure they are the same.

The L646 is just the 'model' of the lamp and the Lucas part numbers are different -

Top lens - amber(uk) 54570496 - red(yours?)54570810
Lower lens (stop/tail) 54570544

Base is 54570616 and 54570617
Gasket (foam) is 54570604

I think the whole lamp unit is -

With Amber Top Lens - 53792A/B and 53793A/B

With Red Top Lens - 53794A/B and 53795A/B

Not sure what the A or B refer to

I have other Lucas model types and part numbers for a Mk3 if you need them.

Kindest Regards

Gobby,

Many thanks!!!

I've just been on another MGB/GT trip - this one only 2451 miles, but before we could get home again, my hard drive gave up. So currently the score is:

MG: thousands
Modern computer technology: zero. 8^(

At any rate, that explains my delay in responding. I have a new hard drive now (courtesy of another trip - 386 miles - in my B/GT), but my memory is wiped out. ' Will recover gradually...

Cheers,
Allen

Sounds like you need 're-booting' before the B !

These MGs will still be going long after we and our disposable computers are gone. As I drive any MG, this thought is always with me: "Isn't this great! There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that can go wrong on this car that isn't worth fixing." ' Can't say that about my computer.

Cheers,

Hey....!

I have a bunch of Lucas lighting stuff ( lenses and bulbs) I'm trying to identify ( 50's to 70's ) - all new and in the factory boxes - but most of the part numbers don't show up on any websites that I've looked at. Anyone know of a good source to identify these as to their applications ?

K John - here's a couple I've had trouble with:

Lucas # 54570323 on box - L630 on lense
" 7174535 on box - L753 on lense
" 489-1 on lense - 572775 L.E.W.10 on rubber inside chrome bezel
" 5954967 on lense - 572775 L.E.W.41 on rubber inside chrome bezel.

I also have some rocker switches and pull switches made by Lucas - some new , some used.....does your book list those as well? They look old ( judging by the knobs )

Thanks - take care !!

The L630 goes on an Austin Cambridge

L753 all I can tell you is it the right hand :)

489-1 is early Morris Minor and Land Rover

If I remember right, the Kipp catalog is handy for identifying these. It's also handy for propping up short table legs, etc.

FWIW,
Allen

Thanks, John, for the info - I'll go from there and get them listed.
Allen - I have used the Kip catalogue and know what you mean - lot of stuff in there - but the Lucas light section tells you the part numbers but not what they fit.
Oh well - life isn't supposed to be easy, is it ??

Cheers,
Dave (Ebay - the classic whatever shop )

Hi Dave,
What are you asking for your 489-1 assembly? Am missing one currently.

Thank you,
Mark

Hey you guys...

Thanks! Dave, my theory is that Kip doesn't know what they fit either. ' Guess that's up to us to figure out. But the numbers are there - and that's at least a little bit helpful. I think all their products are plastic repro's, but even they are better than nothing.

Cheers,
Allen

I have a lucas D shaped tail light with the No.476 on the back plate. It has a heavy ribbed glass lens painted red on inside and has clear spot on bottom for plate. The chrome surround is good and has one screw fastening it and 2 studs for mtg. It has 2 bulbs in it for running and for plate. It looks like the MG TC lite but I think is older. Any ideas as to usage. thanks,gary

Does anyone know the Lucas part number for the top section amber flasher lens for Lucas L631 (Stanpart No.508517) or amber flasher top section of Lucas lens L616. Thanks
