Dear all,
I am having a great deal of no success trying to track down a spare part for the lights in my kitchen (which apparently come from Athens and are known as Greek fisherman lights). There is a plastic sleeve which screws into the element and itself has a screw which grips the screw-fit bulb (i.e. not a bayonet fitting). The business end of the sleeve has crumbled away with years of exposure to the heat emanating from the bulb. There is a rather unhelpful picture at http://www.keme.net/~daj/brokenpart.jpg . I have been to my local they-stock-everything DIY shop and also to B&Q but neither of them have anything that fits the bill. Can anyone recommend a UK specialist supplier of European lighting bits who might be able to assist me? Or is my best bet to get my local electrician in to fit a new UK-format light fitting into it? Many thanks in advance David James. |
