Yep sorry about that Paul. I've moved some staff around and it caused chaos in the telesales dept.

They are indeed in. Crystal style for the pre 99 and clear fronted to match the headlights for 99-00.

Exclamation

Can anyone tell me if they have a pair of these and they were happy with the fit?

You can see from the photo the L shaped mounting bit that fits in the bumber is a perfect right-angle...look at the L shaped bit on the original indicator and you will find small angled "fins" that help hold it in place secure.
The set of these I had wobbled so bad I needed to wrap the L bit with insulation tape Then when it rained I had 1/4" of water in them!!

They did look smart on the car, with the clear reflector effect matching MY00 lights and fogs, but I ended up sending mine back for a refund, would be interested in another set if anyone finds a well made pair..
Not having a go at any particular supplier here, but these do look like the ones I bought..

John M,
They're only use is for looking good, further more you have to have the philips silver bulb with them otherwise it spoils the effect. I got mine from scooby Sport (01268 590085)took for ever to turn but they were out of stock!
As mentioned above by Mega_stream the fit wasn't amazing but then I didn't really fit the original indicators were?
One thing you will find though is that if you have the orange grills below them you'll have to do something with them. Currently about to spray mine black to see how it looks, if naff will try a colour close to DBM from Halfords but am not going to pay 20-30 for the local subaru to spray 'em.

Hi Mega Stream

There is some adjustment allowable by moving the metal spring clip that receives the retaining screw. This will achieve a perfect fit.

We've been selling these for over a year and haven't had water ingress problems. There were lots of problems with the early clear fronts for the 92-98 cars, but none since we switched to supplying the crystal lens ones.

Pete,

Sorry if I've misunderstood, but are these only for pre 99 cars. I'd like to fit the Crystal one's to my MY99 RB5.

If they are different, do you have any pics of the 99-00 ones? Do you also have any pics of the clear side repeaters as well.

I had a look on your web site, but couldn't find any.

Thanks,
Stefan

Thumbs up

These will fit Phase2 type bumpers MY99-00

Cheers for clearing that up Pete..
I think I'm gonna have to get me another set of these ones then, I had my orange bits done the other week so the orange indicators look at bit out of place now.

The silver bulbs look cool aswell

miggs -

Don't bother with Demon Tweaks - I had those indicators on order for 3 months. Got tired of being told 'we're expecting a delivery on Friday', or 'If they don't turn up by Tuesday, we'll give you a ring'. Turns out the supplier doesn't even have TUV approval for them yet, hence no release date.

*******s !
