Free for cost of postage if these are any use to anybody to cannibalise. Both have broken retaining clips and one has a crack in the lens although it passed the last MOT. Will bin them next week if no interest.

When I returned from Switzerland in 2001, I put the car into Quicks MG Dealership in Coventry to replace the LHD Headlights. When picking up the car, the Indicators were held in with Plastic Tape. The Service Manager was adamant that the Tabs were broken when I brought the car in and would I like to buy replacement lights. As the lights were original factory fit, no way could both be broken let alone been driven 5000 Miles over 12 months.
The bill was far more than the quote that they had given so he got a cheque per the quote and I left.
I fitted the lights embedded in clear silicone rubber and they are still there.

I use a large cable tie to replicate the catch - it works a treat. I really must take a photo of it because it allows the lights to be inserted and removed easily :)

A photo would be great Rob, both mine have suffered from this. Mine are currently held in with non setting sealant.
