Side repeater lenses

So where can i find some crystal lenses for my r53? i took off my repeaters today and pained them but the tabs on the inside of the repeater lenses broke on both sides? really really easy too, guess they were old and brittle?

As for the oragne ones for you smoking them out, I'm not really sure. I know some have done different things here on NAM to smoke out their lens. Do a quick search and I'm sure you'll find something.

Alright maybe you should go with OutMotoring then.

I've never used both so I can't tell ya which to get but according to J0kEr go with OutMotoring and not Moss.

$30 for the set. At both OutMotoring and Moss

Triple-C is half the price for the set. But I've never changed my markers so I can't say weather they leak or not. Or if they are good or not.

Better Link to theirs -

BTW Triple-C states "For MINI Cooper only."

I would look into that before ordering. Don't know if it makes a difference.

I believe he is speaking of the side reflector that is located on the arches above the wheels.

Sorry I do not know but I'm sure a search here on NAM will yield results.

OutMotoring has it also.
