They fit any Lucas 488 type light with the military screw lens adaptor, but whether they will fit a particular vehicle depends on the vehicle as they're quite big lenses - on some vehicles the lights are too close together, or there is some bracket or bodywork in the way, so they will clash.

No.  The  Lucas 488 type was a vintage range of lamps (lets say as used on many post WW2 cars) , each function with a Lucas (Lu) prefix part No.    There was no adaptor , you could not correctly fit any 488 bulb-holder to a screw-backing .  Some  488 would have found their way on to S1 and CL types.  .   The military range (screw backing ring)  ,  each function had its own FV prefix Part No.

I really meant that body style rather than 488 per se, but might have been better not to confuse things.
