Default Rear Light lenses - 780 Coupe

Hi guys.
My mate's just imported a 2 door 780 coupe from the States and the rear lights look terrible.
Long shot I know, but does anyone have, or know where I could get, a pair of rear lenses?

Or am I dreaming? I could ask at Lakes on the A1 as they're not far away.

Typical photo attached. (not his car)

regards, Stuart.

Hi, as far as I know Barry has never had a 780 at lakes, although those rear lights look awfully similar to the late 740 ones my brother has on his GLT.
We bought a replacement from Trust Car Parts a couple of years ago but I'm not sure if he has anymore. This is one from Polar parts

Unfortunately they are actually different on the 780

Thanks, I didn’t try the eBay route yet. I did wonder how model specific they might be, and if it being a 2 door makes them even more rare?
