Title: TD5 lights
Post by: beggers on April 04, 2009, 21:34:38

Does anyone know where I can get the late TD5 lights fitted to my 300tdi? There was a company a few years ago but can't find them now.
Thanks

That was Discoparts - they went TU.

You can fit the early TD5 lights as a straight swap - £30 off ebay.

Hiya, wasn't discoparts, it was a small company and I had their web site in my favorites but it's a different site now :( Think I'll give Simonites a try, thanks.

Thanks everyone. Rang Siminites yesterday and they only upgrade the early TD5's to the later lights and not the 300's  :'(  Will try the other link when I get a minute. Bought a CD off Eblag from TD5 Alive about the conversion but isn't much help. Would rather a Pro did it instead of me makin a bodge of it, lol.
Thanks

TD5 and 300s have different shaped indicators. The lights will "drop in" to the TD5 but need much modification on a 300.

I know. There was a company in the midlands (not Discoparts) that someone on here put me onto but the site no longer works, think it was somethin like G&A cosmetics or somethin like that. I'm no panel beater so would like a pro to do it, lol.
Thanks
