They are 4 years old, Slimline wasn't around then.

Still working without fault, so not going to spend money where it isn't needed!

And, thats not confined atall...

None sorry, and no longer have them.
Just sit it underneaththe slam panel, just to the side of the headlamp, then secure using cableties.
