Import "toblerone" repeater lights

Post by slipping clutch »

Hi, I am sure this question must have been asked a hundred times already but here goes !
Does any one know where I can get a set of clear flush lenses to replace the bloody awful 1970's Dr.Who style disgusting amber blooby lump repeater lenses on my rev 1 import ? (I dont know if you can tell but I dont like the stock ones)
Hopefully some one makes a straight replacement but looking around there are a couple of bmw versions that look close.
Any advice would be really welcome.
Thanks for lokking and reading. :D

I had a diy go, I reckon they came out pretty good. They're not perfect but they'll do :-)

I did a little write up as well which might be of some help.
