I got mine from Lambretta Cottage at Kelso last year. Really good quality.

I got an ally one from Scootrs with the plans of powder coating it black. The light unit was badly packed and the powder coat/paint that was on it was all scratched and chipped. This and the fact it turned up with no bulb holder or lens screws. But the worse thing is the fit, it is pants.

The Italian made one is well moulded, but doesn't have a proper reflector or bulb holder come to that. Plus which it is expensive. Personally I much prefer the Indian ones, which are pattern originals and have the proper dished reflector and a decent buld holder.
