Me & Ivor are chomping at the bit to get them!!! Should be here next week. Not sure though whether to keep my chrome mirrors or revert back to original grey or spray the originals black to match the rear lights better.

Dont want the car looking chavy. What do you think would look better?

I reckon go back to the original brushed silver ones they are my favourite feature of the FR and are a good contrast to the red paint. Remember the ibiza FR in red has the same mirrors and smoked tail lights and look just right so the Leon should as well. Get the pics up ASAP when you get them!!!!

It seems its all over. Still having problems with the importers and now they can't confirm if RHD will be done anyway! Back to square one with this i'm afraid

Having spoken with ents i dont think it matters whether they are LHD or RHD.

The LHD come fitted with bulbs, but both the fog & reverse are the same bulb (one being red). They are positioned behind a non-tinted lense (unlike the standard lights that have tinted lense) therefore as both bulbs are the same it should be easy to just swap the bulbs

Have found them advertised on a Spanish website,
http://www.autohispania.com/pilotos...black-49042-p-46993.html?manufacturers_id=266

291 euros, £197 !!! :lol:

I've noticed on the InPro website that they will be attending the Traxshow at Silverstone 02-09, and thought that a direct approach might be effective, as I've just had a chat with the UK importers, and they're as p*ssed off with InPoo as we are....
They seem incapable of giving a straight answer to a straight question, (IMHO)....

Just had en email from spugg333 an ebayer who listed the Hella lights a few months ago he says he will have the dark lenses for RHD back in stock in a week or so. Don't know if this is another red herring in the continuing tale of the rear lights?

Is this not the bloke i payed for some lights off? He refunded me in the end cos he couldn't get hold of them. I know for a fact that neither Hella or In.pro have produced any RHD lights. I wonder if they are prototypes that he has got hold of?

Moley, thought it was you who had ordered some before, I would agree with you about the lack of RHD versions of the lights but he did post pictures with the fog and reverse lights in the correct light location in his first ad, therefore he's either got prototypes or more likely modified LHD ones as you suggested earlier!.

Right this is what he is doing. I think.

I have checked his ebay buying history and it shows him purchasing these lights from Germany as LHD for about 130 pound. He then just swaps the red and white bulbs over and hey presto, RHD lights.

I will be ordering some Black in.pro lights and doing likewise very soon.
