Saw a clear spot rear pre-facelift light on eBay Germany a few weeks ago. Thinking that one day I could find the matching other side I offered the starting bid. Lo and behold I won it :D Translated the German writing only to find a) he wouldn't post to UK and b) he didn't take PayPal only bank transfer :( cos I had a job in France the following week he agreed to send to the French address. Didn't arrive in time so left without it. No probs as French householder would post once arrived, which of course it did 2 days after I'd left and he duly posted on...ringing me to confirm my postcode etc. 6 weeks later and no sign so assumed it was lost never to be seen again. Got a phone call today from my friend in France....the package has turned up again in his postbox :headbang:

That's very kind mr wilks. No it's near segre (nr Angers) place called chaze-sur-argos. The English chap is coming over to uk mid sept so will post once landed in Portsmouth. Probably be bak in France waiting for him when he returns :rofl:
I certainly won't advertise for the matching passenger side just yet
