Shop called the Range does a pair of trailer lights performing all legal functions for about a fiver, and I have some unused abs mudguards rolling around the garage if you want them make me a "locost offer"

thanks for the reply guys. Mike - what size are the mudguards you got? Want them to cover 13" wheels. And can you take any pics?

Hi Mads here are the pics











note the strategically placed foot is to hold them flat -got a bit curved "in storage" tape measure shows them as 2' across widest bit, I can find some red triangles on an old trailer board if you want, one pic shows the £5 lights , they do the job!
