Wanted Wires for Lucas fog lights

Hello,
I was finally able to buy a pair of NOS Lucas lights marked with the words "England", however one of the wiring harness has the grey elongated plug on it. I was wondering if anyone has an extra set of wires with the correct black grommet for sale? or if anyone knows where I can buy one.

Thanks.

Intention is not to steel the thread, just to point out I am still looking for period correct bullet connectors for my Lucas lights so if you have spares let me know. /Jesper

I may have one - I'll check this weekend. You can also a buy then in bulk on the web but I don't have that information handy at the moment.

I am not certain but there may be a difference in the hole size the grommet fits in. I think I was going to try this my self when I did our HCS.

Marty,
you are correct the grommet holes are different sizes from the black (correct) to the grey ones.

As a comparison, here is the opening for the gray grommet, I don't have one for the black grommet without the wiring in it but you can see how small the opening would be.

Wow. The difference is huge. I think I got duped into buying a non-matching NOS pair. The good thing is that the lens both have the marking England and are brand new. however both lens, casing, and wiring are different. I think I will go ahead and install the mismatched pair and live with it for a while. Or perhaps look at swapping the pair down the road if I can find an exact match.

Thanks for the pics!!!
