Anyway heres the lights in the pic below.



These are going to work out at £70 for both including delivery. Also remember the bulb fittings are different to our lights so we will have to buy these aswell and diy them on, voyto said he just used silicone! Shouldn't cost too much for them.

We can pay by paypal or bank transfer.

When dispatched they will take around 3 to 4 weeks to arrive.

Here's the takers that we have for them so far, just need to make sure they still want them.

1. Ajones_17
2. Ryan_G1
3. marklaruk
4. M15T XE
5. STEvieN.I.

Do we have anymore takers for these lights and are the people in the list still interested. These need to be ordered quite soon because if we lose peoples intrest that are already on the list.... well it's not good.

Well i sent an e-mail to him and here's the reply.

"Can offer any of your club members on any quantity.

Tailights - R260ea (R520pair ie. left and right)
postage - R250 - standard airfreight - takes about 3 to 4 weeks.

Payment can be done via paypal. Or bank transfer."

So if we def have 5 people we will get em at £70, if we can get more maybe abit more discount, if were cheeky

We also need to source some of the bulb holders for everyone, to make it nice and easy

E-mailed him about the bulb holders for them aswell!

reply below

"Hi Mark

We dont normally get these with the bulb holders.

These are replacement tailights for our facelifted corsa's (2000 to
2003 model) Thus their original bulb fittings worked.

Even the parts suppliers who we buy from dont keep it. I'll call the Opel dealerships tomorow and get a price for you. If its anything like the VW golf prices, then they shouldnt cost alot. (estimate R20 or R30 per side)

Regards
Naeem"

So if they come out at R30 thats thats less than 3 quid a side!

Hopefully he will find some for me and we can sort it out.

Because most of the people involved in the shipping business in SA are thieves. Crafty ones at that. A teacher at my school had so much stuff stolen from him when he was moving over here. They stole stuff from the packages then replaced the thinks they stole with weights so that people wouldn't notice. Then in other packages they only stole light things so people wouldn't notice...

Yeah but two things in our favour, 1. Voyto bought some (on his own i might add, so more chance of him bein ripped off) and they arrived fine 2. We'll be payin by paypal, who offer protection for this sort of thing.

Good luck with the bulb holders! i think another problem is that if u get the SA ones, the plugs on our UK looms wont fit either, so u will need either a section of that peice of the loom or just use the lexus light holders, hell of a lot easier i think

why not, its just the plugs that i think u will have the problems with. thats what put me off. pluss.. they dont have fog lights abroad i dont think (not 100% sure) so the bulb holders wont accomodate for this.

when i got the lights through, they were covered over where the fog lighs goes, u have to phisically push the hole through if that makes sence? See pic...
