The level was low....the 403 runs very cool anyway, today (Friday 10 February) with a 7°C outside temperature I never saw more than 65°C on the water thermometer

The driver's side fog lamps has a little crack. Does anyone know where I could buy a new one? The Spare Parts reference is Lucas no. 055181B
