anybody used these?

[lemur]

Considering these as a replacement part, can anybody offer opinion/experience?

Why fit the Us Spec ones and then have to run your indicators in the reversing lights?

I would personally fit the Euro spec and has the reversing lights as reversing lights.

Best Quality ones:

Or a complete kit for less money:

Hope that helps,

Not silly at all,

I run all red lenses except for MOT day :lol:

(not that I would obviously do such a thing)

I just like the reversing lights working as reversing lights, find them very helpful.

Just a thought,

All my best,

Alex

I run red lenses even for MoT day and for both MoT's never had an issue...
