Dont think its a clubby unit, as they have the orange lense on the reflector rather than lense, and the indicator is more proportional to the sidelight.

I would just spray the reflective part bright silver, but one of the lenses has a small crack in, so Ideally would like a new lense too, nothing is ever straightforward lol :)

You maybe right there, a quick search shows this pic, which looks familiar ( headlights look the same too) and it's around the same era of the car (81) I'll do some research, thanks :)
