I believe RE Worx and Newera parts can source RE-A parts - links at the top of the page

Be prepared - RE-A parts are b!oody expensive.  I was looking for clear lenses for the front of mine - was quoted over £160 for the pair!! :Hammer  :2Confused  :eek  :2eek

How do!,

MAY be able to help you out matey if your RE inducators are the long and skinny type.  

My motor goes into the bodyshop first sat of March for some serious smoothing.  We will probably remove the front RE indicators during the smoothing.

If the delivery will take ages from Japan or if they cost just too much let me know.  Cant promise anything, because the car may look too odd without them.

p.s. when Donato sourced clear items for his I think they were £200 +

mmm, didnt think of smoothing them out.  Im getting mine resprayed in spring, perhaps I could do that as well.  Any tips on where to place the indicators?

If they are still orange chances are they are branded bosch still bloody hard to find thou. I sourced Clear ones thru miguel from RE-A & as has been said RE-A isnt cheap.

Odd one this,

I think there are several versions of the same indicator flying around.

Mine are the orange ones (tinted black) but marked as genuine RE items.  If it helps RE use bosche to source there parts.  My porsche lights are the Jap boshe units.

As for re-locating of indicators for smoothing i\'m going to place a second bulb inside my drivers / fog lights (the smaller round ones on the bumper).  You could also try a light behind bumper mesh or within the main headlight (if flush type).

The sky\'s the limit!
