WTB: Rear white indicators (Touring) anyone?

[M Quick]

Does anyone know where to buy rear indicators in white for the touring? I can't find it anywhere, not even on ebay!
I so want white indicators in the rear that i'm willing to make my own soon, if i can't find any for sale that i can mod on.

The only place i've found white indicators for the touring is here in sweden on a site (only a few left though) - the thing is, they cost $220 + shipping which is insane! For $220 you only get the glas that you have to fit on the original taillights, so you have to cut the old ones out and glue the new ones on.

So, does anyone know? Prefferably a place that would accept paypal and ship to sweden.



EDIT: I don't know if this thread should go in classified or not, so if it is posted wrong, sorry!

Well Miche, you have found the only source that I have ever heard of. Once in a while a set of those will come up for sale and they are like gold. I've only seen one Touring with them on and they looked amazing, but I don't think I could ever justify the cost though.

Hehe, i bet they are like gold, but still, they ain't more than plastic :) So i'm with you, the price the most wants for them are not to be justified, it's just a situation where the owner of them wants to make alot of money.
I could go as high as $100 but that's it, more wouldn't be fair for a set of them. $220 i would give if they where already modded on a pair of taillights so you don't have to do it yourself.

And yes, they look absolutely amazing on a touring. Really clean look.



I'm thinking of painting mine black until i can find a set of white indicators.

Here's two bad pictures of "black" ones. And two of the white ones... Damn i want white :(

There is someone on the German e34 and 7-forum, which makes small series. His nickname is maho22
see post 8 a pic
http://www.7-forum.com/forum/5/heckleuchten-rot-weiss-schmiedmann-flensburg-86416.html
His real name is Martin Hoffmann, and he lives in Austria.
He also makes them now for the E32.
Maybe you contact him via the 7-forum by U2U, but he is not often online.
He is more often on the E34 forum in Germany, as he has a Touring. So better contact him there
See here

I will send Martin a U2U on the E34 Forum in Germany, and show him the link.

the link for the radicast ones is in the FAQ...
as was the answer to this question.

(Frequently Asked Question = FAQ)

If you want some, pony up the money.
I took years to get radicast to run off a few more, and I doubt they will ever do anymore since they haven't sold out already.

How about the all red look?
I painted mine black before I got clears but I think the all red look would have been better.

[shogun]

He has white, light grey and dark grey versions, that is all.
Othwerwise I would have posted a pic.
All red is prohibited in most countries.

How about adding the information to the FAQ? IF he is going to sell in the US, some indication of what it costs in dollars shipped would be helpful.

ALL red you can do yourself with candy paint.

[M Quick]

Thanks guys!


I could go red too ofcourse, but it won't be legal, though i got the tintpaint to apply it on my taillights, about being legal, that isn't a problem, the worst that can happen is that you get a fine, but that is not very likely to happen.

140EUR is still too much for the taillights as they are only the plastic pieces, it's about the same price over here. 140 EUR is like 200 USD then you got shipping on that, which would make it cost about the same.


So, guys should i paint the back/reverse-lights too? What do you guys think?

[M Quick]

I went with black indicators until i find white for a reasonable price (like $100 max). It turned out pretty good actually, tinted it pretty much, so it goes with the other black details on the car. Going to paint the reverse-ligts red tomorrow and then i'll throw up some pics of how it turned out!

[M Quick]

Oh well, update!

This is how it turned out. Black and red. I like it better than standard, so that's a good thing!


Here's some better pics, those other didn't make justice at all.
