    French EbAy has them cheap all of the time.

    (Don't pay $ 300.00 for them on our EbAy.)

    If you are talking about the front square driving lights on a 308 series, my 1984 QV had square Cibie 10 DE lights on it. The lens were broken. The body is the EXACT same as the SEV Marschall 750's, so I bought used units off of ebay and switched the lens. Lens are a bit different, but the pattern is actually better on the SEV's. Ended up with the same look but with the SEV's lens instead of the Cibie's on the Cibie bodies. Was about $60 total, SEV 750s were put on mustangs I believe, whereas the Cibies must have been european.

    EDIT: See this post for pictures of the Cibies (original lens when I bought the car before I switched to the SEVs)

    Edwardo,

    Have you had much luck with your suggestion? I have had a high percentage of problems buying on ebay from France - destroyed in shipping; absolute junk condition; never arrived; doesn't take PayPal - send cash in euros...; etc. etc.

    Regards,

    Art S.

    James, FYI, Those Cibies are "35 series" lamps; the marking on the lens says IODE, which is the French nickname for quartz-iodine lamps. :)
