I am looking to change the side repeaters but unsure which would look best on a black meega?
I am personally thinking smoked.
Have found the the following:

I take that these would be legal for UK use?

Smoked - its what i have on the Black MV6 and look excellent :y

Or ...... you could buy [size=14]2[/size] pairs of the later clear side repeaters for similar money. :y

Thinking of doing the same the smoked ones look best on all cars :y :y :y

is it facelift or prefacelift
i have a green facelift, on facelift elite wheels and because they stand out quite well when they're clean they suit the clear side repeaters as opposed to chrome so it depends on the style of your car, if you had say a prefacelift with the dark 17" irmscher MV6 alloys then smoked ones would look good.. in my opinion
if you end up going for clear, they're only £7 a pair direct from a Vauxhall dealer, not sure if they can get smoked, if they do I would imagine the same price, as opposed to paying £11 online

Yup, thats decided it gonna get a pair of smoked repeaters. I think they will make it look much better imo. :y
just to add it is a prefacelift but does not have the 17" irmscher wheels as it is a ex-plod car.
Cheers Guys

Got to agree with you there Crazydad that meega of will-floyd's look great,
shame my car has rust scabs and a couple of dents on it, although I am hoping to get them sorted in the near future!!

Anything but orange! & change the headlamp side bulbs too for chrome ones - it removes the fried egg look from the front - about £10 ebay.

I know what you mean about the orange ones, dreadful is an under statement!! Gonna have a look for some chrome one for the side lamps, any idea what fitment type they are?

A fine question. Omega bulb holders have an offset arrangement ie pins at 9 and 2. But having just checked mine I bought bulbs at 9 and 3 - and somehow made them fit. They've been good now for 2 years but best to get the right ones 12v21w.

I know the sort you mean gonna have a look and see what I can find.

Thanks :y

I have smoked ones on mine and they look good (car is satin red) Only thing you need to do if they do not come with them is to change the bulbs for the orange colour ones :y

much appreciated :y the GLS look did it no favours, but close up there's a few carpark dings but apart from that I like what i've done with it :D

They are a bit poverty stricken BUT get some xenon HID headlamps in there, I tell thee, fitted some to our CD a week ago and they are the t$ts. Superb value and I still can't wipe the smile off me face at how well they fitted :D
Going to be doing a 'How To' very shortly because I say, this is the BEST upgrade in yonks :)
There used to be a seller doing the smoked ones on the bay a little while ago but he dissapeared. I am 75% sure they were genuine VX ::) Always fancied a set for the blackie so will give ma plastic card another bashing. ;)
