Indicators - Peter
On my son's 205 the front LH indicator fell apart rendering it inoperative. The front lens was a clear plastic type. As a repair, I fitted a lens assembly from a scrap 205 but the lens colour is red. To balance things up I then replaced the RH one with a red as well. Just out of interest, are the newer ones legal.

Many thanks

Before about 1990 the front indicators on a 205 had an orange lens (I hope yours is orange, not red!) with a plain bulb; after that a clear lens with an orange bulb, for styling effect. It should be possible to find either at a decent dismantlers. As long as the flash appears orange it is legal.
