Default Rocking horse poo - or 1 glass lens for Morette mainbeam lights.

I know it's a long shot and I can pick up a completely new set off a well known online retail site for £700.
I've already tried the replacement units from another bolt on lighting supplier, but they don't fit my model.
Specifically - all I am looking for is a replacement glass lens for the inner / main beam Morette light, that is attached to the front half of the plastic mount. Everything else is working. However, I'll take the whole unit or larger if anyone has the glass lens.

FULL SPEC.
CAR - RHD, 2002 WRX.
LIGHTS - Original Morette lights, I am after the inner lens for the right hand side of the car (drivers side / offside - see photos wrapped in pink), which on mine is the main beam, with the sidelight bulb also built in.
Approx. 105mm diameter. Originally a Valeo light.

See photos from stripping down the nearside to replace them both.

It would be a backward step to put a set of standard bugeye lenses on this car, just because I cannot find one glass lens, and am too tight to pay £700 for a completely new set.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ken.

Smashed lens - drivers side main beam.



Not smashed main beam lens unit - nearside.


Just the glass lens and plastic mount would fix my problem.

Backside of nearside mainbeam unit, with the manual level adjusters removed.

Hello. Many thanks. Your GoogleBay skills are clearly far better than mine. Ordered.
