TAILLIGHT UNITS
Anyone know a source for 2001 style tail light units with clear vs orange lenses ?
Re: TAILLIGHT UNITS
Hi Barry, try carparts_uk on eBay uk. I just got my M style rear lights from them. There based in Germany, they have a huge selection of tail lights for BMW's and other makes. I paid £60 delivered and very happy with them. Fitting them on in the morning if weathers a bit better.
Cheers
Dave

Hi Dave...will you post a pic here once youve fitted them...cheers mate...I'll have a look on their website too.
Re: TAILLIGHT UNITS
Here you go, not cheap but brand new units. I had mine off him a few years back (a lot cheaper then) and they were delivered within a couple of days. Service from him is fantastic.

Other than that you could wait for a second hand set to come up on eBay, they appear a lot more often now.
I think the ones davejue1 purchased are pre-facelift?

Re: TAILLIGHT UNITS
Yours are pre facelift Dave, which are easy to come by for a good price. The facelift are like golddust to be honest!
I paid €40 for each light individually through searching and searching online... finally they come up but they are not easy to find! Ebay sellers will charge you a dime and dozen...
This is where I found mine for €40:

This guy has had these up for about 2 months now, and will not budge on the price!

Re: TAILLIGHT UNITS
I got mine a year or so ago by searching for breakers on ebay with 01/02 models and asking them if they had the facelift rear lights with the clear indicators. Paid about £100 + £20 delivery if I remember correctly.

Try this one...

Its got clear side repeaters too if you need them but I would say the headlights are rather mangled.

Re: TAILLIGHT UNITS
Was only over the past year actually... sometimes the breakers "dont know what they have" so to speak..
