Bloke has just backed into my car with his fucking Land Rover !

Can you still get genuine back lights or do I now have to get a shitty Schnide ?

Not a happy bunny !

Plenty of good condition rear lights come up in the classifieds. I'd recommend a new set of seals when you come to change them though.

Is there any other damage (bootlid or rear panel)?

Dunno yet. Bumper scuffed and looks like it may have hit the cluster with his bumper corner

Sounds like it could have been worse, but still PITA. I agree with Chris good second hand part, theres plenty around.

Also a PM coming your way.

I think I have some rear lenses somewhere, I'll have a look Friday afternoon if you like? Where abouts are you, if you're close then you could pick them up (or I could drop them off) and save on postage.

Cheers for the PM Byrom. I'm going to get my head done but it'll have to wait I'm afraid. I'll give you a ring though

Ahh cheers Billgates30 - very kind offer. I'm in Lancashire but I've beaten you to it I'm afraid - just bought a pair off the bay for 40 dabs.
Thanks anyway though, very kind that :D

Lancashire, I thought you were "Ooop north". You may as well be in cockneyshire :lol:

No problems though, it will save me raking through the garage :o
