Sideblinkers from another car
How about getting those clear/white sideblinkers from another car? Volvo S/V40 models, 800-series or perhaps Bmw E36 sideblinkers?

Maybe on Sunday I'll have a pair from E36 so I'll be able to see if they match. They are much cheaper than clear indicator for 480. About 2,5 quid a pair.

Re: Sideblinkers from another car
I love Björns version of the indicators, they look terrific! And he also made sure they're road legal as he kept the approval numbers while copying the original.DaKyy wrote:How about getting those clear/white sideblinkers from another car?

He is very busy with other things, at least he told me that in Sweden last year. I think in time you will be able to contact him, if you have enough patience As long as you don't get bounced mail back it's all OKDaKyy wrote:And also you can't get Björns indicators I've mailed him couple of times and no answer. Seems he doesn't read his mails anymore.
And for the rest, they may be a tad expensive, but on the other hand he is one of the few people sticking their neck out to make cool custom products for the 480, that cannot be said about AutoStyle or something like that And the 480 is quite a cool car, why spoil it with BMW parts (just kidding, your choice of course)

I've almost forgotten about them. They lay in my garage and wait. I think that they should be ok on 480. I'll let you know when they be installed.
