The original base tooling for the  Mini Clubman front indicator lights as fitted to the AC 3000ME where scapped by Lucas, but a faithful set of reproduction parts have been made, they come complete with body to lamp and lens to lamp seals in either left or right hand, price £66.60 each from minispares.com

Do the Mini Clubman ones fit?  Triumph Dolomite ones certainly do - there has been some uncertainty re the Clubman ones.

The Triumph ones are correct - not sure if the Mini ones fit the same backplate.

The proportions are different, the sidelight section of the Clubman lights is wider that the Triumph ones so it's unlikely just the lens would fit, think you'd have to change the whole unit.
