markjonesx, tried to contact you twice now with no luck, if your still interested please call me.

Mark, sorry for delay. Will call you today and get a mirror sent to you. Good luck!

I have one you may borrow. It is currently with Dave, you may have seen his progress with the bases. Dave's given me your details I'll get in touch with you and ask Dave to fwd. Chris

Dave, Any chance if returning my original mirror which I sent to you a few years ago to help you start this? Chris

Dave how are you getting on with these?vIf you recall you still have my mirrors I sent you one time ago. Last time ou posted it looked like things where progressing quite nicely. Chris

Thanks - keep them coming!

I wouldn't mind having one too - if anyone can be bothered to take a mould.

Thanks Paul. How is your S1 coming on?

I am asking for photographs of the front compartment of S1 and 1983 Turbo cars. I am trying to collate photographs in an attempt to build up a picture of how the cars were originally supplied. I appreciate that these vehicles have invariably been modified over the years but I am trying to establish definitively what was original. With all members help I will be attempting to do this for all areas of the cars but need to start somewhere. My knowledge is limited but collectively I am sure we can produce a visual record with is historically accurate. The sooner we do this the better. My apologies in advance if this has been done before but I cannot find any reference to such a record. Chris

Long shot but do you still have any of these bits?

Please count me in for a set. Out of interest will they be finished in the original damper & spring colours?

Thanks for this information - much more thorough than I was expecting! I will pm you with my email address. Out of interest what would have replaced the standard radio if the cockpit system was factory fitted? Would it have been the clock? Chris

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of a factory fitted panasoinc RM610 in an Essex (or other Esprit). I have obtained a new one and it's too long so I assume you have to trim the light off hte back but I want to see how Lotus did it orginally. ALos need to see details of headlining trim either side. Was the unit ever covered in leather to match the interior or was it just eft the grey colour? Any help on this including fxing it to the roof would be appreciated. Thanks Chris

I have got one, well three actually! I do not have the base though (the bit that attaches itself to the car). I also have two molded copies albeit simplified without the ratchet style mounting point. Would this help??
