Theres a chance they will pop down to Donington but cant say for sure and will likely bring a few sets and samples.

Do you know anymore about this or should I contact them direct?

Hi,

Best to contact them direct via the email. Im not sure whether they will come along or whether they will bring any sets myself.

Are you after fronts, rears or both?

Cheers

Steve and Gazza

Your rears will be sent out to you asap.

I will sort out some instructions too.

Car is at Sinclaires at the moment anyway.

What glue did you use for the rear lenses?

Paul,
I would really like the fronts. They look great. They are a good price but I have a few things to sort out first. I might be able to afford them with a discount at Donington though. What d'ya reckon?

Hi,

I used 2 part 5 minute epoxy! Mix it up and you've got....... 5 minutes lol

The good thing about that stuff is if the lense isn't quite touching the assembly, the Epoxy will still set and bond them together.

Dont think if you get it on your fingers it will wipe off though!

I think its best if you contact the company if you want to order a set and have them at Donington. I really couldn't say about discounts.

Cheers

My replacement rears arrived today, with a set of ornage bulbs and the chromed type bulbs too which is the best option imho. They look ace and cant wait to fit them ! Thanks Paul for arranging this.

Glad you like them mate,

They do look pretty good, managed to get a better photo the other day.

Thanks for putting your money where your mouth was and supporting the prototyping.

did they start doing the outer case??....
I think vitor wanted the outer bit/case rather than the lenses....
I could do with a spare set out the outer covers too..
cheers

Hi Mate,

My mistake, i thought he was after the clear indicators! No the Outter Covers wont be made by this company.

Sorry for the mix-up.

Got the car back yesterday and managed to get the fronts on today inbetween downpours and they do improve the look of the car.

Got both friday's before Donington to get the rears done as I'm in Prague for 5 days from Sunday. So just hoping for some nice weather to get the lights out.

Cheers Gary

Rears are done and I thinking look much better now.

If I get time next friday when I come back from Prague then I will post pictures.

Both me and Steve are going Saturday morning, so all 3 will be there!

Hi mate,

Im all set too, so it will be great to see the rears on a different car too.

Did everything go ok?

Is anyone interested in a set of fronts if the company decide to come down?

Send me a PM with your email address and i wil start an ordered which can be paid for on the day.

Cheers
