Clear Rear lights- bulbs??

Postby MickCooperS » Fri Jun 23, 2006 8:20 am

Hey all- i'm looking to get clear rear lights- i noticed that minimania are selling them for 200 Euro (230ish delivered). I am just wondering about bteh bulbs that are required to use the clear lights- what i mean is- do i need a red brake light bulb and if so will it not spoil the clear look when the red bulb is behind the clear?? and so on....cheers for any advice!! Also, are they easy to install??

I ordered a set from mikeythemini on mini2 a couple of months ago for Banana. The units came as a whole, no extra bulb fitting required.

Dead easy to fit too, unscrew the old one, screw in the new one, you're done :wink:

i've ordered rear lights for my car..... though i'm not sure whether they're going to suit or not..... think i'll wait until jon is over in august, then fit them and get a second opinion.....

i'm going for the black lights though......
