I have tried breakers all over the uk to see if i can find a similar lamp shade or pair of lamp shades, without success,
If you have a similar van and have replaced them what did you replace them with?
They are 240v with a pull switch and one is fitted on each of the side panels.
Not sure if they were fitted to other models or makes of caravan.
Mine is a Bailey Hunter Lite 350/2 1997
Here is the link for a picture

I replaced my abbey 240v lights with some flush fitting curved glass ones looked a bit more modern as I also changed all my cupboard handles from wood to polished steel. I got my lights from a DIY store.

I held on to my old ones but not sure if they are the same style to the ones you are trying to replace post a pic of what you currently have and I'll check and see if they match. Ether way I have a pair here of original van lights that are available for a modest sum. These are from a 98 abbey Spectrum if you Google pictures of this you will see the light style.

No worries it makes a huge difference to the look one thing I did make sure of was that the back plate that screws to the wall of the new lights had a bigger footprint than the originals to ensure any screw holes are covered and any paint fade is hidden. If you are lucky you should be able to get a pair for about £30.

cheers Andy
