Hi Guys

I have decided that I need to replace the front & rear indicator units with clear alternatives. I have seen lots of S1's with the clear lenses in the front but none with clear lenses at the back, is it possible to use the same lenses that fit the front of the car on the rear of the car - and if so where can I buy them from?

any help would be great

The lenses are the same front and back, but the reason you see more with clear ones at the front is that the S1 111S had clear lenses on the front as standard. If you do the rear indicators then the tail/brake lights look odd in red. Some people change those for clear as well but it looks a bit Max Power!

Try www.hangar111.com/ and www.eliseparts.com

Actually they're not *quite* the same front and rear, the angle of the lens on the backplate is slightly different

Found this link for supply, might be of use. Though I don't believe that you can change the indicators for red ones unless they flash orange.

Look pretty good in clear though.
