Rear indicators on a 120

[Ppuxley]

Can anyone help point me at an exploded view of how the rear indicator assembly works on a 120.
I am sure something has been missing from mine ever since I bought it, that leads to it knackering the rear mudguard where they attach, and them always rotating.
Thanks

They are all like that. I make a better support plate to fit under the guard.

OK. Thanks. So there are no parts missing from my photo, then?
No wonder they're always all over the place then.
So maybe, a nut and backing nut to the bracket and a rubber bush where it passes through fibre glass,to keep it more or less independent of the mudguard.

Sounds good!

I made my own bracket out of stainless on my Jota 120 and it works very well, it is pretty much the same design as the old one.
I put two rubber grommets on the guard to keep it separate as you plan to do by the looks.

I shortened the stems on all four of my indicators. They look much nicer and don't shake around all the time.

I can quite see the logic in that, they do wave around, dont they. While I'm certainly not restoring this to be bolt for bolt as it left the factory i want it to look pretty much like the original, so I think i need to stick with the original length.
if one was going to come up with a purely practical solution an obvious answer would be one of the many rubberised after market indicators that are readily available

I made a metal U out of flat 25mm which fitted exactly inside the mudguard sides and top drilled wholes to match those already there. then used larger washers behind the blinker nuts. all good since then.
