The MKI Mini is the most sought after, and the tail lamps are one of the most distinguishing features. The small, almost oval lights are so popular that many late cars have been 'retro'd' to this look. The result has been the ongoing production (albeit aftermarket) of the lamp assembly. The original design is maintained in that the base, etc. is still a chromed pot metal. The problem with the original is that they while they don't rust, they do develop pot marks! As they are impossible to repair, the only real fix is to replace them. Assembly is complete with base, sockets, lamps, lens and gaskets. The nuts on these lamps are different than the originals and take a 3/16 UNF nut.
