I participated in a group buy a couple of weeks ago for indicators and side repeaters. Because I have the crystal headlights, I asked for crystal indicators and side repeaters.
After a few weeks, a package arrived containing just clear indicators and side repeaters, not crystal.
When I contacted the supplier, he informed me that in order to minimise confusion, for the group buy, the clear would be the crystal and the crystal would be the clear (Can't see how this prevents confusion). So when I asked for crystal, I actually ordered clear (er....HELLO???????).

He then asked me not to send them back as his profits on the buy were already low and it would cost him more money to change them. So much for helping fellow enthusiats out, it looks as though it is all down to money and greed.

I have the clear glass headlights, but the 'ordinary' (lensed) clear indicators. I think they match the sidelights better. If you could get clear glass sidelights it would be a different matter.

Got crystal or is it clear (same group buy) on my silver MY00.

One thing I would get is silver bulbs, the orange ones make the side indicators look like fried eggs
