Hi, does anyone know where I can buy a replacement light fitting like the one in the picture? It takes a s15 bulb 284mm and the length can be no longer than 32cm x 6cm wide and 5cm depth, I was wondering if I could just buy the end caps and replace them but can't find anywhere that sells them. The end caps have become brittle and broke off and need replacing, I have seen lots of other strip lights but they are all too long to fit into the light itself. Thanks

These are incandescent tungsten filament lamps which have been banned for some time now. Replacement LED lamps are available, which run cool and should last an extremely long time.
The fitting appears to be fully enclosed, and as long as it requires some kind of tool to remove the outer cover, and depending on your DIY skills, it may be possible to rig something involving soldered fly leads and cable ties to effectively convert it to an integrated LED fitting.
Ensure the circuit is completely isolated before you delve in any further.
