DEPO Clear light kit installed!

Recommended Posts

Well 3 weeks after ordering my new lights, they finally arrived. I was hoping to have them in time for the Chch meet which hacks me off now more than ever because they really set the car off and the Boston green looks so much better without the amber indicators clashing with it!

Install was straight forward, although had to do some dodgy panelbeating to get the right hand side tail to sit flush. This was due to the bolt threads not being long enough.

Also; the bulb holder for the right front indicator was very brittle and broke as I unclipped it, so that's taped up until I can get to BMW tomorrow.

But anyway: Here are some before and after pics....

All in all, certainly a worthwhile mod if you're still rocking the ambers! :D

Nice

It looks really good. Was thinking about it myself, but now am definitely going to do the same when the finances bounce back

Just got them from seller Eurolights on Trademe. Link here

It's probably cheaper if you buy the whole set and then onsell the front indicators.

Cost for my set was $270 plus $35 shipping. You'll need a set for a coupe though, which are slightly more expensive because the demand is greater.

Good luck, they do look awesome, I can't stop going outside to check out my car!!! :D

Pod filter does NOTHING! NOTHING I tells you!!! IMO, you're wasting cash that can go towards your lights.

My 2 cents. :)

Looks real nice. Replacing the orange bulbs too with some phantoms bulbs will give you a real clean look.
