Ooops havn't donated for awile
So now done  ;)

Laverda Dave:
Do you have another one please Trigger!
I had one on order from DS, they were getting a pattern one from the US but called me today to advise there are no more available and they have no plans to manufacture anymore in the near or distant future  :-[. 
The one I have on 'Project 400/4' is cracked and has two broken lugs, the clocks are now fully restored and need a decent console to fit between them!
Happy to pay, I don't expect a freebie  :)

Sorry, but that was the only one I had in good condition. The rest have broken lugs. Did see a nice one at DK the last time I was there, are you aware that they are the same on the CB550 ?

Piki:
A friend of mine has one in good condition(I have it at home) send me a pm if you are interested.
Thank you.

Using the incorrect screws and or over tightening causes broken lugs on these warning light covers. A while back in a few idle moments I tried a repair on one of these covers. It was a scrap one and I never finished a final 'tidy up' on the repair as  I had no intension to use the cover but clearly the repair would work.  Now a replacement is apparently no longer available it might be the only option.

I made some brackets in mouldable plastic and secured them using two part epoxy adhesive. Obviously the technique requires refinement particularly the top lug, the side ones can hardly be seen but the top one needs to tidy.
