What are you oppnions on the lexus style lights for the rear of the mini?

i think they'd look good on the right mini

[Guess-Works.com]

Had a look at these when I was in Minispares the other week, they curve round rather than have a square edge, asnd doo look quite funky. Only they have the usual problem, no 'E' mark, and no refector either, so will probably have the usual "Show use only" or "Check local regulations for use on road" overider in the instructions somewhere.

oh right, the site i looked on said they were E approved and had built in reflectors.

edit: re-read it, said it came with the sticky reflectors.

Dont like them, not a fan of 'white' rear lights

Never really liked lexus or fully clear rear lights.

They dont look that bad i s'pose. Doesnt look like the have reflectors in though.

I think they look nice... as long as nobody sticks some orange bulbs in there:p

But then again I shouldn't be one to talk, most people will be in shock once they see my mini lights

[The Roadie]

I like them, nice "Euro" look.

I really like the old round mk1 lights...but thats just going off-topic...

[P91MER]

I'm with Barnett on this one!!

I know MCM asked for your opinions, but chavish? These lights look VERY stylish. and since when are chavs stylish?!? chavs usually spray their lights jet black, so no bugger can see them. Unless the chavs round your area are more upper class chavs?!?

They are different, some people are afraid to be different! but i would have a set of these on my mini no questions asked.

Yes the Mk1s are the best, and if i could afford to bodge some of them into mine, i would!

**rant over

why is it when some one wants sommat diffrent it gets branded chav straight away? :fear: :fear:


anyways i like them :grin:

oh ye n when you say no reflectors can you put little square ones on the bk end of the car or would you still get done with them on

[Cir-clipalot]

I guess as the first poster said they look good ON THE RIGHT MIN, i.e. if its an old shed totally standard but then with rear lights worth more than the car then yes welcome to chav-ville. But if in keeping with an individual car's styling then why not. personally prefer mkII lights, they look clean+tidy (just orange and red) and am looking forward to sticking a fat spot/reversing light on the boot soon!
