jasonpirtek Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hi 87 exclu i got an 86 donor car that doesnt have any on at all. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 hmm yeh Technically it should have them on a 87 , shame to put holes in the wing if there are non though , shame you couldn't put some into the mirrors ala beemer & merc fashion , other option would be some of the universal led stick on ones or even as seen on a few mantas the old focus triangular ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 My '88 has wings off an older car, I just cable tie a set of universal side repeaters to the base of the door mirror for the MOT and take them off afterwards. Tester is fine with it and it only looks crap for one day Like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Irmscher did do the oval side repeater as found on the Mk3 Astra in clear or smoked but it does mean cutting the wing Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maher the hermit Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 think side indicators were fitted after dec 1985 i was looking at fitting small leds into the side of the door mirrors as fitted to later cars? as i hate those halford look a like ones opel fitted as an after thought bit like the rear fog lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tester is fine with it and it only looks crap for one day Like this: I like that! Pi$$e$ me off drilling holes in brand new wings for ugly side indicators, i used to put the clear astra ones on but they always got nicked, bloody scroats Tie wrap ones for one hour a winner Nice one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
