Side Repeaters

[H8SV8S]

Are the Polo Mk4 side repeaters the same as the Mk2 Ibiza Cupra 16v repeaters? I'm about to order some smoked Polo 4 ones from Awesome GTI and just wanted to check they'll fit...they look identical, at least

Thanks

yes,i had chrome mk4 polo ones on my old ibiza,the later ones use a smaller bulb,from a mk3 golf,bought these in error and had to mod them to fit:cheers:

Yep, they are the same. HOWEVER, the last time I checked, you could get them from VW for less!

Also try SEAT. My 16v had clear repeaters on and I think they were standard.

Too many people just run out for aftermarket stuff first. When I had my Saxo VTS, it had orange repeaters and I priced clear ones from tuning shops. They were around 20 quid. I went to Citroen and got them from a later model for 5 quid!!

Cheers for the help and suggesting I go to SEAT, but I want the smoked repeaters anyway, not the clear ones...

If you get a part number can you let us know?

there some smoked side repeaters on ebay for both the seat and the polo. I'll see if i can get a link.

why not use the ones of the latest Leon R ?

( pt no 1J0 949 117 *2 ) clear see through lenses using a clear bulb

has orange reflector built inside

worse case scenario is you may (depends on car) need the bulb holder too ( pt no 6N2 971 273A *2 )

even from a main stealer only £8 odd for lamp each and £8 odd for the holder

and they look like this

they may be the ones that use the thinner bulb daz,had to drill out my leon/mk3/4 golf ones to fit the cordie bulbs in,unless of course you buy the bulb ho;lder and bulb aswell;)

std capless 501 bulb mate

but like you say no probs if you use the holder as well

just cheaper to try em out first :p

i got the mirrored ones from a mk4 golf and had to get the bulb holder as well but it was well worth it.

[The Saint]

were they a direct fit or was there much work involved Danny?

Thanks a lot for that, but just ordered some for 15 pounds from AwesomeGTI :mad:

[danny842003]

the lenses fitted straight in. but u need to change the bulb holder. just need to solder 2 wires each side easy enough.
