Front indicator lenses at Racetech

[TJC46]

Hi guys just had an email off Racetech. They have new S series indicators for sale. They are similar to the original but not exact. just thought id pass the info on. http://racetechdirect.co.uk/tvr-car-parts-detail.a...

They are having a laugh!

"Similar but not exact"? They are as "similar but not exact" as the ones you can pick up for a tenner each for a Kia. Or a BMW E30. Or a Nissan Terrano / Ford Maverick.

£49.50 each? Jees....

But people will still pay... this time for non-originality!

look ok ,for that price would go for kia or bmw
but would hang on and go for S CLUB RAFFLE PRIZE at least 5 tickets
and hope for the best

Hi All

Don't see the need to buy originality or non at that price, when with minimum work you could fit something ells that look just as good, after all its a TVR made up from other parts they purchased in, so why not carry on with that and use something ells.

Hi All.
I must also say Thanks to Norman who spends a lot of hit own time and effort in looking for alternative parts.

Doesn't make it any less of a rip-off just because it's for a TVR not a Terrano...

Rip off Britain

I guess that's what happens when you have a captive market and demands exceeds supply. It seems a bit strange to spend that sort of money on something that doesn't make the car go any faster, but if you're going to spend silly money I'd rather that it went to a TVR specialist like this rather than some random ebay seller.

Hi all. Not owned mine very long and was not a member of this site then...But I purchased a pair of these exact ones from David Gerald Redditch £31.00 each in November plus VAT of course.This site is Amazing..Thanks to everyone who contributes,have been reading every backdated post on the S........going to take a while!!

Hi Chris

Where abouts are you in west midlands?

[Ceejay73]

How much?
Glad I already have 2 pairs of these plus the OE units.

Wonder if they come with the wiring plug as it's quite a specific little rubber sealed item.

Norman! I am in Redditch where abouts are you? I see your a bit of a legend on here!! Be great to meet up sometime.

I brought some Nissan terrano ones but did not come with the plugs.

Any ideas where to get from?? Tried my local scrappies.

personnally I'd just go for some standard "crimp on" connectors and a smothering of silicone grease or this stuff .....

I think he's talking about the bulb holders in the indicator unit itself.
