Hi
Have a look at this:

It looks like the BMW reflector shown in the above link is the same as the type ESM stocks.

Those BMW reflectors (part no 7161921) are also widely available, both new and used, on eBay and elsewhere.
I just bought a set of 4 slightly used for $12, shipping included ....

Inside every later 948 Minor rear lamp is a Lucas Reflex reflector held in with a tiny bit of glue. Smaaaaaash! Job done, if you don't mind a bit of work with a file and some polish.

When I was at the reflector stage I found a card of about 6 in a pound shop, stuck one on and it looks pretty good even though it is flat instead of convex!

Change it for a high level red brake light? I've done 2 like this so far.
