TAIL LAMP LENS NUT,TO 196
The nut that secures the lens on an early Lucas-style tail lamp assembly, listed up to engine/frame number 196.
This is the small fastener that holds the lens on a Lucas-style tail lamp - what the parts book calls the tail lamp lens nut, up to frame or engine number 196. It shows up in the catalog across several tail lamp and stop lamp figures, alongside the stator, headlamp harness, speedo, tach, and rectifier listings, which just tells you it lives wherever the tail lamp assembly is wired in and serviced.

If your lens keeps rattling or won't seat right, this is the part to check first rather than assuming the lens itself is bad. It's a small item but an easy one to lose track of when you've got the lamp housing apart on the bench.
Given how far back this one goes in the catalog record, it's worth checking your own tail lamp housing against the parts book listing before ordering, since tail lamp fittings changed over the years and the "to 196" cutoff in the description is doing real work here.
