As a fairly new Chimaera owner, I have decided that both the original indicator lenses and the repeaters do not fit in with the overall look of my car.
Can anyone inform this mechanically challenged owner where the original parts were sourced from, or where I can get my hands on clear lenses for a '99 450 ?

Cheers............

P.S. Are they gonna be a pain in the rear end to fit ?

I got mine from the dodgy 'Ripspeed' department in Halfords, I think I paid £16. Easy fit

Same as me but you can source them from more 'down to earth' motor shops for a lot less.

Fiesta ones you want.

As for the bigger front indicator lenses, I have just ordered some from TMS.

Details: £36.56 inc VAT for the pair including the bulbs. But not postage.

Contact Ivan at TMS - parts@tmstvr.co.uk

Hope that helps



As for the fitting:

May prove to be a pain, but I'm gonna just get up early one Sunday, hope the weather's warm, run it up the ramps in the garage and give it a go ... more time-consuming than difficult I think.

Sides are from a mark 2 fiesta. Halfords sell clear or coloured lenses with bulbs for £20.99. Just done mine takes 10mins and looks great.
