Side Lights/Rear Lights that are not naff?

Recently-ish bought a set of lights (paddocks I think), sidelights, rear and indicators lights. The problem I am having is that the quality seems to be naff. Where the bulb turns to lock in place, that plastic is very thin...so whilst bouncing about the bulb can either out of the plastic ridge, or worse than that, a few of them have worn the ridge away so now the bulbs wont stay in at all.

Any ideas where i can get some decent quality ones?

look on ebay you can pick up a full set of wipac ones for under £20

Ere ya go

Ooo, they look nice Sirus, would look just the part on a 45 year old land rover!

I am pretty sure it was the Wipac set that I received, horrid things.

mr rusty you can check this 1 out on the net for gen l/rover lights. www.classic-car-accesories.co.uk

I thought they were quite subtle, very green too, you can say to all them ramblers "Look my hobbys more enviromentally friendly then yours"

i did buy some off ebay very cheap brand new stamped wipec and i had same problem as rusty rhino also a lot depends on the make of bulb you are fitting

These are fookin expensive, but good. (Temporarily out of stock, but keep looking).

Thats true Sirus! They really are quite awful. What inspires people to make such things?

Cheers brnocz for the link...although I am to find someone who has bought some lights and can vouch first hand for the quality. Have you used these?

Glad to hear someone else has the same problem!

Interesting about the LED ones...I am just not quite sure how fitting they would be with the vehicle (and they are expensive!)

never tried them but like i say i bought wipec make and they were foooooooooookin crap, best thing to do as you have a pc email them and ask are they copies or genuin parts and what make are they,

if you are thinking of fitting lights fit continental truck lights
