What, you didn't like the link I posted to new ones from our host?
Or just Google the part number, 37H6928, or the Lucas part number, L594 if you want to find about a gazillion different places to buy them.
$15.95 + 8.64 is a bit steep for me.  I was hoping somebody would have one laying around, that's all

If nobody here has one, our host does:  37H6928  (MSC also has them if you're looking to capitalize on the relatively low £.)

Tuborg experimented with putting beer in plastic bottles for a while, wonder why I haven't seen them for quite a few years now.

Plastic is cheaper and so on, but the glass lenses look better over time.

I replaced my orange beehives which were beginning to crack/craze from age with orange glass which has a much nicer color and will likely outlast the car.

I had a pair of the glass lens and today, while moving things around, I dropped one of them and it shattered 
Would anybody have one or two lens that would like to sell to me?
cheers,
Abel
