Okay, I took the plunge and got some of the long discussed crystal/red lights for my car.

Opinions Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Be nice...... I think they definitely suit a red car a lot more than darker colours

I'm not 100% sure yet, I could be swayed either way.

Well done for "taking the risk" Ciara, they look pretty good

Yep i like them too!
different and nice one
for daring into the unknown...

Like it!

How much where from?

Any chance of more pics in lighter conditions?

Different, giving it a more modern look any chance of a picture at night curious what they look like.

That's a good point....can you get us some nighttime pics pleeeeeeease?

I quite like them, I've seen them on the bay for around Ԛ£100 IIRC.

Night time pics are a must!

Yeah I know the pics aren't great, it was quite late when I got home from work and by the time I had fitted them, it was raining and getting dark

I'll get some better ones tomorrow and some night shots too

Well the reception seems pretty good so far...for some reason I feel like I'm commiting sacrelidge

Cheers guys!

Watch this space

i like them deffo. i think it suits the car more as its red! someone should try them on a dark car.

Dave, they're the ones you can get on ebay (from taiwan )

I must admit the quality is not as good as BMW obviously, but for Ԛ£115
to your door, I think it's not a bad deal!

No, sacrilege is what I'm committing as I still haven't changed my lights back yet!

Yours look really good after a 2nd (and 3rd!) look, might go for those instead of all reds.

Will all depend on the day and night shots though!

I think the simpler design of these lights suits the car better, your lights would be cool on a modded car with a big body kit

C*

I think they look sweet. There different but not stupid.

Adam

Cheers Adam!

Well it stopped raining so I went out and took a couple of night pics







They pictures just aren't doing them justice, they look so much better in the flesh.

DAMN! they look real good. gotta do bit of photoshop now to see what they will look like on mine.

They look better than the round ones ive seen.

Looks good!! nice one well different. Dare i say it the bottom picture make it look like a Merc/Ford Onion or something else just cant put my finger on it.

looks good ciara, do a couple of long shots in the daytime so we can see the full aspect, they look very tidy

Please! Don't put your finger on it whatever it is! Lets just hope it was an odd picture

I was trying to show what the indicators look like, without much success!

Jamie....BMW 7 series (the one before the current one?)

someone wanted them on a bad ass kitted car.

hope ou dont min ben. and i made them little darker.

Oh Yeah - I can see that

Yum, I'd love a black 740 on 20" alpinas

light up like e28 lamps, not something i am too keen on!

I don't know why they just could have made lamps which had a clear indicator but the same design as normal e30.

Someone photoshop the amber indicator to clear on standard lights i am sure that would look great!

Ok, it was nice and sunny this morning so I got a couple of shots in daylight!











I think they're growing on me.......

yup, theyԚ´re nice now u need E36 costomised crystal side indicators, crystal fogs and matching front indicators plus a set of the angeleyes without refractor glass

600 notes later

but they do look good, i couldnt really see Ԛ´em on any thing other than red or silver, or mabey black(not too sure on that though)

They really do suit the red motors...nice one Ciara for being so brave and bold!

Yep look really well was thinking of them for my silver one.

Hmmm... they're nice, just not very E30.

Well they say opinions are like assholes so...

I think they look a little out of place on e30's.

HOWEVER... They can't look any better then they look on your car, it looks OK and suits the car the best they can.
All-red tails would look better IMO

I think it's a good thing to put stuff on your car because YOU like it, not because everybody else does

Yes, that's my dilemma - they're nice, but are they for the E30 or not?

Decisions, decisions......

yes they are they look very nice
only thing you have to do now is put some silver bulbs in the indicators so that it's all red/silver.
but they realy look good!

Ok, the lights have been tried and tested by myself and the conclusion is that they should have stayed in Taiwan!

It's been raining hard all day and when I got home today the lights looks misted up. I took them out and there was water sloshing around inside

In addition, there's no cover for the back of the lights, the bulbs just kind of screw in, so they look untidy in your boot.

I might see if I can return them

Oh well, at least my experience will stop others from buying them.....it just had to be done though


Well, I guess it's all reds or smoked for me, as long as they're original equipment

Cheers folks!

Had exactly the same problem with mine.

Easy to fix though, all you have to do it tighten it as far as possible (though without cracking the plastic as I did! )

They haven't leaked or misted up since.

There not a way to fix that??Like seal them with something or make a cover for them or adapt the standard bmw bulb holder to fit them??

gutted mate send em back, tell em they screwed up your motor and uԚ´ll get trading standards on to them, and park a red e30 on their nuts if they dont do right by u

also tell em weԚ´ll pay em a visit, and we outnumber nuts to e30 10 to 1

?what am i on about ?
