Well-known fact that Cook and Jones were both huge Faces fans, going so far as to say on the record that that's who they wanted to be when they decided to form a band (prior to it being called the Sex Pistols, the early Wally Nightingale-fronted "The Strand"). And yes, all of the members each had their own influences, but most of them were glitter rock (namely the Faces, The Stooges, The Dolls, Alice Cooper, Bowie, and T.Rex, along with the aforementioned Modern Lovers. Don't forget, too, that Matlock was supposedly kicked out of the band for liking the Beatles and the Who, so there was also a powerpop influence, whether the other band members liked it or not).
Sorry for bumping an old thread, BTW, but it's kinda up my alley. ;)
