The only problem i can see is......... the price.

50 quid for 2.
100 quid for a full set.

100 quid on aftermarket indicators.

Donate the money to those who need gogo juice to attend the bcf bbq instead, a much better use for that cash me thinks.

Yeah, bloody pricey. Like to get some new bright LED ones, but need to be bright. Ive seen some shockers out there!! Actually, by the time I buy 4 indicators,resistors and blanking plates (hein gericke will give me the plates) it doesn't seem that bad!! Rolling Eyes

Just before I got sacked from HG - these lights came in to the shop.
Yes look very nice, and yes very bright.
But the price put me off right away -

LED indicators aren't worth it, in my opinion. LEDs only cast a very directional light, which isn't much use for an indicator, which you need to be able to see from several different angles; they're fine at night, but I found them to be all but useless during the day.

If you are even considering spending £100 on Oxford stuff then why not go the whole hog and get Rizoma? They will be better and brighter.

I would sack the resistors and buy a LED relay.

They look great. But as most people agree £100 on indies is huge. Especially as I'm replacing exhaust, hangers eyc aswell. Prob just go for clear lens/orange bulbs on oe lamps at the moment. Rizomas for crimbo?

There was another set on Ebay for £25 each but I cant seem to find them now.
