I rebuilt the innerds of mine with cheap marker lights.

I don't think you need the original bumper, I haven't seen them up close, but I think they use the same lights as the bracketed light assembly
Maybe just punch/drill the 1inch holes and mount the two lights?

Also, I'm suspicious those internal lighted bumpers were dealer replacements. I have seen a few Series Vs with them but little, if any, on the Mk-II Tigers.

Jan, i have an original bumper with the light assemblies missing . only the last 2, 000 or so Alpines had this setup.
Mk-II Tigers never had it. only late Alpines. the 2nd photo shows a late Series 5 Alpine with the lights i need

Check out Moss Motors under MGB license plate lights-they look similar.

According to the Changes in Production section on this website.. B395016692 – Bumper mounted rear license plate lights first appear. 8/67.

I recall having a whole bumper with these type of lights mounted in it, but would have to go dig. I too thought it was a Tiger item.

Here is an internet photo showing what you are referring to.

OK, I dug... and I found it. The bumper is rough, so I don't feel bad about parting out the original Lucas lights. One of the light "shrouds" has cracks in it. Otherwise these look usable and if you got nothing now, a certain step up. PM me and I can send more photos to see if you want them.

The base says Lucas L534. Googling this number pops up some MG lighting as someone stated above. What is different is the base, which is more straight on the Alpine bumper. At any rate, you may be able to combine the parts I have with one replacement shroud from an MG item.

Did you find your lights? I have a bumper with these holes in it. Lights are probably somewhere in the garage.

Pricey, but he is open to offers.
