Just spotted that one of the high level 'side' lights on my 2012 A-T Apache has some rust inside it. I've been up to have a look and clearly the seal is leaking. After trying to remove the lamp glass the seal is now totally knackered!
From browsing eBay it looks as if it's a Hella Autocruise 70mm side light which sells for £22.99. Wow!
Can anyone confirm that this is the right one -
It looks similar but not exactly the same.
Thanks,
Bill

Thanks Alex - it's one of the front ones that I need to replace. Shame that they're not Lucas as the company link you gave me sell the seals themselves.

I've never found a design that doesn't let water in or that has a decent seal. Mine are now LED - the biggest advantage of which is that the lamp unit is sealed leaving only the body gasket to worry about. Which can be butyl mastic because there's no reason to remove the unit again. It's worth trying to find one the same size - there are plenty to choose from.

@tonyidle - can you point me to where you got your LED units from?
Thanks,
Bill
Aten lighting might be a good place to try. Make sure whatever you buy led wise is 8-30volt as your Moho runs at 13.8 ish. (y)
