Unfortunitly with the e46 .. you pay top dollar for the parts as they are still sold as new. Have a hunt around on the net ... its way cheaper to import one yourself. RE: the stop light thing .... you can get anything you want .. you might have to get him to grab it off the net thats all ... Toptown (hamilton) do the full spoliers ...

Napier_E36 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 (edited) nah but really im sure u can get them without or just get one with the stop ;amp in it but just dont connect itfor a WOF, if the vehicle has an indicator or a light fitted, it has to work. So for example, if you add a wing (WHY!!!) with a high stop light, but dont hook the light up, you will fail your WOF.IMO, wings are not the go. There are of course exceptions - like cars that actually need them, (like race cars etc) but honestly, adding a spoiler is just a bit of a waste - its not going to do anything for you!
