Side position lights new on Ebay

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

The type of clear plastic used for these was changed around 1995.
Early type cloud badly but can be fine sanded back to clear.
The later ones do not seem to degrade.
Might be able to find a few good second hand ones when I get allowed out to search the unit.

You could try to contact the vendor and come to an agreement.

PayPal has confirmed a refund.
Have shot them a message, pointing out that Ebay is still showing 3 of each L&R available.
Will be interesting to see whether anyone else gets theirs.

They acknowledged my dismay and complaint that the items were still showing as available.
Item on the 'bay will be removed a.s.a.p.
Anyone else here managed to get some?
