Cosmetic upgrades, Chrome & LED
« on: July 13, 2015, 01:02:46 pm »
I am after some chrome switches for a 3 dr, which do people recommend - Bold Sport, ebay or Ali Express?

I'm also going to order the under door lights, probably from Bold Sport, do they ever do discount codes?

I got a kit of interior switches from ebay, takes a while to come from China but the kit itself is fine

I bought some recently all from eBay.  Only thing i wasnt happy with was the window switch on the drivers side.  It was more gloss chrome than matt brushed.  Ill add to my build thread later on

I'm torn between cheap eBay and Bold Sport, if the eBay ones work they're a bargain, but if not its money towards the Bold Sport!

I've ordered a set from eBay. Did you decide on where to buy them?
