Not seem them for a looooooooong time as by the time they real cool all New Vauxhalls went Oval. Hence most Carltons have Oval indicators (both mine do).

Don't forget to stick orange bulbs in the clear or smoked ones  |

No problem at all Me I used to use em but all my cars are fitted with "Senator A" side indicators - much better and very very hard to steal - gotta really take the whole car to get em - only avaliable in Ornage tho!!! It's so funny watching a little scroat try and twist the cap to remove it...... Also never broke one washing the car with a brush either |

had my smoked ones (with orange bulbs) on now for about three years (got em off ebay and originally put on my blue carlton but now on my purple dippy). Make a whole load of difference on the car for something as small as they are   |

They make such a huge difference, I plan to get myself some smoked ones off e-bay.

i h8 that word 'chav' just cos people dont like certain things dont mean its chav i personally think lexus lights can look good Yor spoiler looks good pete i'm a firm believer that similar details ie lexus lights, neon's, sun strips big bodykits etc can look good on the right cars its when u get some knob head with a saxo who fits some mad spoiler, and sun strip with big motorsport on it on it and doesnt change steels for alloys etc thats wank IMHO |

Just bought some red ovals for mine, I'm hoping they will blend in with the paint - until they light up.
I'll post a pic when they turn up.
