After deciding that the quadconversion rear cluster was the only one that I actually liked , I was sadly disappointed to hear that not only had they sold out last week , but they were seriously considering not manufacturing anymore due to lack of interest . So does anyone perhaps know of any lieing around someplace being unused? Regards

I am having mine changed to these and the twin headlight pods at the front. My bodyshop man got these in last week from a local supplier Milton Keynes way. I could find out more or put you in contact if that would help.

although they are from quadconversion they are actually only a 3 light piece

and apparently they did a version that had 2 sets of led rings instead of a reflector and 1 led ring , making it all matching colours when off and 2 very bright red rings when on, (not sure of the legality of exchanging the reflector for an led ring ) but wanted them very much, may have sourced some 2nd hand ones not sure yet though.

You could always take a mould off an existing car and make some up. You might get a few orders also. I personally like the afterburners.

Someone I spoke to knows of a cerb with a rear cluster mod where the owner wishes to revert back to original spec, BUT we don't know which version it is, but apparently they are the " expensive ones ." I m hoping its not the 4 light version. Even if it pans out it also sounds like a convoluted process.

The cluster you are talking about has two reversing and two fog ?,if so i have them on mine, they were made by a firm local to me .All the lights i think were Hella .I bought them as the last complete set but they still have the moulds for the housing,They did me a set of the front pods too ,but i never used them prefering the 7" .

eBay has lots of fiesta based lights options, although I prefer the Fiesta centre pages stuck to my rear.

I think the quad clusters look good but I'm not going to cut up an original spec car to fit them. It's a 90s car afterall - Fiesta lights, RL7s, what's not to like? lol

I dropped my Cerb off today at tvr central to have the dash retrimmed (insurance paying for windscreen replacement ) and after trying to sell sell me the 4 light cluster Adrian showed me the parts for the 3 light cluster from previous jobs , decided that he had enough to make a pair , then took me across the yard to a fibreglasser who happened to have the moulds for 3 and 4 light rear clusters , and they now making me up a pair , how good is that smile,

I have just been informed that the quadconversion afterburners do not fit my car (a Jan 03 speed 6) without a significant amount of fabrication. They only fit the "earlier" model apparently. I am sceptical about this claim - can anyone who has them tell me of their experience?
