Default Best place to get clear indicators for saph Cossie?

As above really,also the small square clear side repeaters,damaged them when I took them off to spray the car.

Had a quick look on eBay and there seem a few available but I'm not sure about quality of fitment,heard some bad press on here from a few peeps,but can't remember the name of the firm!!!

I was thinking ford but not sure if they do them still?tried a few peeps on here 2nd hand but no joy and they'd have to be mint really.

Thanks mate,I`m going to ring John Rickards in the morning as they do Hadrian,Livermores hasn`t been too good lately,the last time I went there they wouldn`t order me in a panel even if i paid up front as it wasn`t in stock on their system.

In all honesty,it`s not the boys working there`s fault as their hands are tied a lot by Hex Holdings who own them now,Hex supply some really poor stuff,I ended up throwing their laquer out as the finish I had from it was so bad.

If you want good quality paint products in Swansea,pop 2 mins up the road to Autopaints,their quality and colour match is amazing.

Yeah,fair play if they say its coming in Tuesday etc then its there.I had a lot of problems with livermores failing to deliver on parts.I waited over a week for a rear arch for a mk5 fiesta which never arrived and it was a customers car,in the end they gave me a mk3 arch which they claimed was the right one.it did fit,but it was a bit of a fiddle.the boys attitude over it wasn't the best but I could see his hands were tied a bit.

I just think as mine being gloss black looks better on ambers Same goes for white and magenta too
As for throwing them away,yep if I still had all the front and rears I have binned I would be loaded.They are getting harder to get hold of now in good condition and more and more seem to be changing back.
