Shipping from the UK is very quick and reasonably priced compared to US shipping charges. I ordered something for my bike and it took 6 days. I ordered something from Germany and I'm still waiting 3 weeks later.

I must have ordered about the same time as you, Tuesday last week, as the exact same parts have been delivered today as well. However I bought a leather handbrake gaiter and a rear demister switch for the hardtop.

I'm still waiting on my clear taillights, apparently, they are still about a week or two away. :cry:

Going to wait for those before installing any of the exterior clear stuff as I like a consistent external appearance on the car.

I recently got some clear reflectors as well...however only the front ones fit...the rear ones do not sit flush. When installed they are angeled and protrude quite a bit. This is on a Eunos Roadster as well...ANyone else have the same problem or did I just get stuck with some dodgy products?

You do know that EACH of the reflectors is only designed to go in one particular corner don't you?

So if you put any one in its wrong spot it will not fit right. I found out the hard way when I fitted my clear reflectors.

As UA said, they would be the wrong way around. I thought they looked wierd until I realised that they are slightly angled to contour with the bumper. Swap the sides over or flip them upside down and you should be sweet.

JSE,

If you were unlucky to score an older set you might need to give them a touch up with a file on the top of the back surface. The original rear ones didn't fit very well but they did a redesign a couple of years ago and the new ones fit perfectly. As long as you have the right one in the right position and orientation.

I had the same problem with the reflectors not sitting flush.. as everyone said i figured out that they each have their certain spot..

right stays on the right hand side of the car, with the thicker of the two at the front, and the thinner at the rear.. same goes for the left side..

I also bought some chrome indicator bulbs, that flash amber. Its all looks alot nicer not seeing amber bulbs in the middle of your clear indicators.

Pics are up.. hehe

ewww orange..

ewww red..

clear..
