Front indicator - where to purchase?

Anyone any ideas on where to get a genuine offside front indicator from?
Just got one this morning that I bought from 4 Ring Spares which they advertise as a Valeo unit - they actually mean one that leaves big gaps and wont sit in the hole correctly made by children in a China sweatshop - the thing is miles out all around (something like a 10mm missing from it) and wont actually push in far enough so that it wont fall out again if there is a stiff breeze.
Any where not a main dealer would be handy. Cheers

There are loads on eBay for around £15 to choose from.

I only know this because I recently sold my S4 lights and they got damaged in transit. Turns out that 'headlights' were on Parcel2go's claim coverage exclusion list... along with pretty much anything else you may ever want to send!! Very poor service.

Rant over.

Yeah that's the thing, the one I got was from 4 Ring Spares on Ebay and its completely <beep>. It looks nothing like the original and it doesn't fit properly at all. Looks like main dealers are going to get my cash, would rather have a proper one than one that doesnt fit.

Parcel2Go - know that feeling mate, they crushed a computer case (expensive Lian Li one that I sold) had to threaten them with court action to get my claim back from them.
