Roadster headlamp shells

[John Wakefield]

I was talking to an East Coaster owner yesterday & he told me that John Swainson makes fibreglass headlamp shells for the DB/DC roadsters. He had not as yet bought one himself so did not know what the quality or fit was like. I don't have a contact for John.

Looks like a good time for anyone else wanting one to contact John so he can make a small batch. Did he say if he can make both types ie with or without lighting switch as slightly different molds would be required.

sorry to say being a peasant and ignorant of such matters the conversation was short, I think he can only do one style?

If you need to find out as being in fibreglass you will not be able to convert one to the other, the switch aperture is recessed so cannot be replicated on the non switch one. Unlike steel where you can 'tin bash' it.
