Cheapest way out is to buy a set of denji lights (they sell them on the home page) use the siem backings and glass if you want or if not put the siem glass to one side and use the complete denji units.

wait for stew baker to finish his aluminium reflectors and rebuild them with the original backings and glass, the denji backings don't fit, the surrounds rot even faster, and the glass is the wrong pattern.

Got a full service history with my 1989 CTi when I bought it in 2003. In the intervening period, it had had 6 yes SIX replacement sets of driving lights...and those fitted were pretty rusty in 2003. They're worse now than the ones shown here....and I refuse to replace them on principle. The cynical manufacturers of such cr*p should be embarrassed.
