I recently purchased 2 Lucas R47 lamps from a fellow Triple-Mer. The rims were not good and one Diffusa lens was missing. However, I found a company in Czechoslovakia called Vintage Replica who make reproduction parts for a few Lucas motorcycle headlamps. I ordered two rims and two lenses (with the correct glass and the Lucas Diffusa logo). They arrived today and I can't believe how perfect they are. Beautifully crafted and they fit perfectly. If anyone needs parts for their Lucas R47 lamps, seek out Vintage Replica and look at their parts for the Lucas H52 lamps. All the parts fit perfectly, (but the H52 bowls are different).
