No, and No, but you can get retro fit ones. A decent one will set you back about 200. I'm not too keen on the cheap stuff on ebay though, but that's just me!

i got mine from www.chromeline-design.com
very good service and if anything goes wrong then he will sort you out a treat. Would much rather put my money in to a product i know will work than chance it on some cheap tat off ebay.

I can see that bootyman doesn't do cheap tat 
but the ebay kits are great, I'd recommend them to anyone.

I havent used them, so i cant comment. The only reason i prefer to pay a bit more id for peace of mind really, and i know if it goes wrong, i can gt a replacement or refund with no fuss. For all i know he probably gets them from the same supplier as the Ebay stuff

he is doing a group buy over on e36coupe.com ...
his service is like no other, i've used a few bmw specific parts suppliers and none can beat his service.
some of them are not around any more either

Yeah my mate Kav only uses him. I know how anal Kav is so Ben must be very good. Must admit i've only heard good things of him and his service and so far i'm more than happy with evrything Kav has bought off him for my so good luck to the man.
