Look on eBay and type in Lucas 400415. You will then find new and new old stock genuine points.

Lots around £4-8, but the "modern" Lucas may not have all the screws/washers etc that the old "original" red boxes have (unless they have fallen out!) ES47 Remax are also good quality with all the bits...just put them together in the right order!
One of my cars has a replacement DK4 distributor (ex military) & it seems to have additional earthing, which can cause confusion (to me!). These were available for many years from several sources & the distributor number is not listed in the usual Lucas sources. My theory is that they were probably for the Morris 8 engine fitted to Centurion tanks....to power the auxiliaries! They go round the right way & as all the bushes etc were new are much better than a knackered old one, even if the advance curve etc may not be 100%.
