hi all

i would like to replace my current rear lights with the mk2 lights with no reverse.

is it just a matter of buying mk2 lenses , or do i need to buy the whole units and rewire them.

thanks in advance.

From KMS (Kentish Mini Spares) Mini MK2 Rear Light Clusters - £24.95 + £7.95 P&P (http://www.kentishmi...ex.php?secId=37)

Not sure how much they are from MiniSpares as such but its worth finding out... Why would you want to go for New ones?

theres not really alot to go wrong with them so long as the chromed plastic is in good condition the rest can be refurred or cleaned up. im sure weve got a few sets of 2nd hand mk2 lights at work.. thousands of mk3 onwards but a few mk 2.lol Surf Blue Mini Garage 01159389899
