Title: Indicator hairpins
Post by: aglassinthesink on December 16, 2010, 18:31
i saw someone with these on in another thread a few weeks ago and really liked the look of them but never found out what they were. anyways after a lot of searching on these forums i've finally found them:

apparently they were made by a guy on here called Simontan75 but he hasn't logged in in about 2 years   s:? :? s:?  is there anywhere else making these? i'd love a set as i think they really improve the side of the car

Simon stopped making them as it was too expensive....his words when I asked 18 months or so ago....he usually posts up on here too if he is producing anything although not seen him on for ages and ages   s:( :( s:(

Yeah I was looking through his old posts but he hasn't posted in well over a year so I may email him and if he thinks they aren't cost effective I'll offer more cash cos I really want these   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  

Off topic Lynne but Newton-Le-Willows as in St Helens/Warrington?

I think I drove past you a few days ago in town, at least it was the first '04 red edition I've seen around here..

I'm going to email him next week, just too busy at work at the moment with our traditional Christmas rush
