CTD Germany is offering these:

They swapped the orange circle in the middle for a white one. Good idea, I still hate that chrome trim though...

Hey CooperSpeed,

Would you happen to know what currency Germany uses? I'm trying to convert the prices on CTD to US currency. Thanks.

Uh, that'd be Euros...that's what it says on their site, and it is the official currency of Germany.

Im not exactly sure on the availability, they definitely werent available on the earlier 2003's but are supposedly still an option(atleast in the UK). I can find the part numbers if you would like. I want them for my red/white cooper, but im afraid to ask what it costs...

There may be import problems with these. I'm not positive but I don't think they'll pass DOT lighting regulations. You may want to check into that before you spend the money on them. Case in point is the clear rear lights. They aren't legal in the US without the colored bulbs.

Euro conversion - 1US$ = ,855 Euro or going the other way, 1 Euro = $1.169

There's also this one on the same site (CDT). Should meet the DOT requirements, but I am not sure about the asthetics.

Minimania has them in their new catalog that I got at the Italian Job screening in SF. They are on page 21 and they want $29.95 each. They are also listed on their website part #NMA3031. I am going to order them next week. They are legal as they have orange lamps inside them.

You're talking about the clear side indicators(stock on Cooper S) for the Cooper. It isnt the new breaklights. Im guessing the new break lights will be $290 just like the clear ones.

This price is per side. Is that realy cheap?

BTW: Here is a pic of clear repeaters:


The taillights are OEM parts.
All prices at our website are in EURO and incl. 16% VAT. For overseas deliveries we will calculated the prices w/o VAT plus s/h costs.

Those taillights are great, but I'll keep mine. Amber lights add a nice touch to IB, IMHO, but I can see where these would look super in other color schemes.

Oh no! That's expensive! For a tiny piece of plastic? Yikes. If for both sides, then maybe.

I like those lights. I have wanted to change the red/orange but I didn't really like the looks of them on a red/white MCS. I might just have to do this.
