new side repeaters

[adam.garside at uk.ibm.com (Adam J Garside)]

Thanks for the feedback everyone, I thought they'd look good but I thought
I'd ask for some opinions from a wide spread of people.
That's why I like being here, a proper selection of Rocco owners across the
spectrum, from VW Purists all the way across to heavily modified Rocc's.

I'll answer everyone's questions in this one post but If anyone wants other
details please let me know.
I'll tell you the story, My next door neighbour (Miserable old fat dude)
came home with his new BMW 330d. I thought "Nice car, shame about the old
git owner!".
I also noticed the side repeaters, checked out some sites that sell
aftermarket lights and couldn't find them anywhere.
After some further research I realised that they had facelifted the E46 BMW
with new Side Repeaters and a couple of other cosmetic details. These
nicely shaped ones are only available for late model E46 Saloons and Wagons
(early 2002 onwards in the UK). I phoned BMW parts dept expecting a silly
price, turns out they cost just under ?30 for the pair with Bulbs and Bulb
Holders.
Took a little cutting of the plastic mounts and my front wing but I think
it's worth it!  :o)

I haven't found them for sale anywhere else, so the dealer looks like the
best idea. I believe they are available in clear from the high end models
(330i and 330d) and orange for the lower models (318i etc).

@Shawn, In the UK they are different on the M3 dunno about US M3's though.

Also polished the wheels and took advantage of the sun to get a nice photo
