NAPA part 1001D is a complete independant taillight with a 90% 
identical but
(PLASTIC) 'beehive lens' for a TR3.  This unit has both lens and 
mounting base
and is the correct size and styling for a TR3's (other model or makes?),
however, the len's plastic flanges are different and will not 
interchange.  I
believe they come in red and amber and cost about $6....

Wow, I must be getting older than I thought. I remember when those were 
about 49 cents at Western Auto and similar stores, back in the late 
1960s. We had a couple (one white and one amber) on the front of my 
Dad's Herald as a temporary fix until I could get hold of a "proper" 
replacement side lamp after a collision. I think those two lamps might 
still be somewhere in the attic of my mom's garage.... :-)

Triumph Herald engine with  wings.
