They are usually around the 150 - 200 range! I just used some tint spray on mine, the finish isnt perfect but they are a lot of money!

I'd be amazed if fitting different rear lights is classed as a mod. Usually cosmetic mods don't count, it's performance mods they'll hit you on.

Some insurances do take cosmetic mods in to account when calculating a premium, due to the increased likelyhood of some thieving little ar5e being tempted.....

agree just use some tinting spray and lacquer and do your own, i done mines and you cant tell the difference, plus it only costs 14quid instead of 150+  :smiley:

A word of warning to anyone thinking of getting the R32 lights from Eurowagens. I ordered some which were delivered yesterday. 1. They are not genuine but are Hella copies. 2. They don't fit flush with small gaps around the side where water can get in. 3. The connectors won't slot in - the retaining lug is too wide. So mine are going back. Looks like spraying may be the only option. Either that or order some genuine ones from the stealers - I dread to think how much!!!
