Loads on evilbay mate. I think you'll struggle to find a second hand one cos the top mount(s) are normally welded to the legshields.

Danny
Another reason you don't see them second-hand is that they don't normally fit without being chopped about as there is a lot of variation in the shape of individual legshields, as well as being major differences between Series 3 and other Lambrettas, including GP. You'd be pretty lucky to find a used set that fitted without a lot of fettling so people don't often remove them once fitted.
Quite o lot of threads on LCGB forums about these.

Servetta's actually had a legshield tool box for their S3's from the factory in plastic. They fit perfectly without being fettled- I've got on on my TV175 S3. They do crop up on Ebay from time to time.

You need two "L' shaped brackets for the top and some for the bottom which utilise the front mudguard fixings. If you can get one they can be fitted very quickly without fettling.
