Hey guys, as u may have allready known, i installed clear front indicators a couple of weeks back, (i shood update my picture), and now i have decied i must also get clear side indicators. there are a couple of sets of AU ones on ebay, but i wanna get those oval commodore ones cos theyre cheaper and i rekon theyd look different. Im pretty sure theyd fit woodnt they?
P.S. dont think im wierd cos im posting on a beautiful saturday nite, im grounded.

i got my au3 repeaters from Ford, they were $31 including the orange bulbs, brand new. I've seen a few e-series with commodore repeaters, can't say i'm a fan in the slightest, but hey that's just me. You've gotta remember that these days ebay is more of a convenience thing than a bargan thing. Quite often you can get things cheaper in person, at normal outlets.

The Commodore ones look alright. I'm pretty sure Rollin has them on his EB.

not bad but today the smash repairer showed me the globe on my ebII and the hole on the auIII isnt big enough...does that mean i have to buy the wiring as well? would the hole on the ba repeater be bigger? i may have to return the repeaters i bought at ford parts ($17 each)

mine is a plastic or hard rubber globe holder, I just got a sharp stanly knife and trimmed the two sides (that don't have the indentation for turning them in) on them, i think there was a bit of metal on the base of it but i did't need to touch it. I wish my camera was working, i'd take a pic of what i done.
