Philuk 0 Posted August 6, 2015 That's what I thought! I've got some arch liners waiting for me as well but need to find the money to buy them! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 6, 2015 Mind me asking how much the new lenses were? Only because i have a set of new lenses and was thinking of selling them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philuk 0 Posted August 6, 2015 I've paid £100 for lenses and some extra headlights Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 9, 2015 Wonder if anyone will ever remake the lenses. As there are getting quite hard to find. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philuk 0 Posted August 9, 2015 These look so much better than the originals, the old ones we're really badly peppered Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philuk 0 Posted August 12, 2015 Nothing to add this week I'm afraid, one of the old headlight adjusters fell to bits on me so I'll be using one of the headlights I got with these lenses :) Other than that I've been busy trying to sort out for VWFestival! Got a busy weekend ahead of us so won't be back on the car till after that, also next weekend is retro rides gathering so I won't be at he car then either! Still no signs of the wheels. Apparently the issues at the tunnel have caused delays on the whole postage situation from Germany so I've gotta hold out for that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
