whers a good place to find all clears for turns, markers, and tails? All ive been able to find is turns and rear markers, and at kinda high prices for what they are.

I think the only cheap bit you can get are the crystal clear front indicators.

The backs and side repeaters are a bit more specialised and so silly money.

the cheapest way for clear backs (depending on if you like them or not) is this guy:

he's also does the clear fronts (a bit different to the crystal ones and a little more expensive) and he's looking at doing clear side repeaters.

PS. there are also posts on the Oz supra forum about it in the MKiii section.
(I assume you're from there "Auburn, Wester Australia")?

eh I think its fair.

Yeah, OK fair but when you convert to Aussie dollar (I think Havoc13 is from down under), expensive for what you get, after all they look STD until you turn on the lights, break or indicate.

Yeah, I like them but these cars are going for about £1000 here in the UK and its hard to justify spending another £600 just on rear lights unless you really want to look after it.(it's killing my wallet just keeping it on the road).
The JDM conversion looks better that the prefacelift tails and works out a lot cheaper. (on ebay all the time).

Do the clear corners people do the same job on the facelift tails (JDM)....

(I didn't look).

I'm not keen on the Takakaira ones either.

Cheers.

I'm pretty sure he's from Auburn, Washington (a US state) ;)

But seriously, I wanted the clear side markers too, but I couldn't find a set cheaper than 90~ish anywhere, thats just too much for me to justify paying for a small piece of plastic. I know a lot of work goes into the template and manufacturing process, but still, 100 bucks when you add shipping and tax just to make it clear....

And I can't imagine clear tails on these.....

The biggest problem is trying to find the front repeaters, and a full clear rear brake assembly that all match clarity.

i can handle the price of $100 for turns and rear markers, but $1200 for a full clear rear brake assembly is outragous!!!

Thanks for clearing that up for me....silly me....lol....

Yeah, you can pay a lot for stuff for these cars.... wolfie308 does some nice stuff at an OK price... there are a few pics there of his products. but the tails are for the pre facelift (the UK spec cars have all the same tails).
