Ive pranged my FR TDI!

GRRR!

I was reversing and didnt see a railing, ive been very lucky - I was going slow and theres hardly a mark on my car, though the rear passenger light got smashed, a bit sticking out of the post made contact with the light just. So it could have been much worse.

Anyhow to the point - where can I get a new rear light?

BTW im not going to my seat garage, it happened there and they are being really unco-operative, the railing has its paint taken off in a 2"area, and they say it needs replaced However Im contesting, it wasnt lit and I feel they are partly responsible.

Another SEAT dealer?!

The nearest is 70miles away.. Is there anywhere you can buy online?

if you cant find any other way you could buy one from pattersons/arnold clark (whatever theyre calling themselves this week) and i would collect and post it to you. would cost extra by way of postage but wouldnt cost you £140 worth of gas and you wouldnt have to go across the dealers threshold.

Thanks for being helpfull, but I was only looking to buy online and save myself half a days travelling..

Where are you from?

I got a back light for my pal for £35 instead of the stated £56. It was the small light on the rear drivers quarter.

Ted Johnson does parts mail order, and a discount as well ...

agnews or campsie? seems you got away lightly, tell them to take a run n jump about fixing the railing!! they got enough out of you for the car and as you say it shoud have been lit.

 

[Michael B]

It was WRK Ballymena..

How much is a rear light on these anyway?

 

[Ni Cupra]

yeah thought it was done there, thats why i said about agnews or campsie as they would be the other 2 closest. not sure, couldnt be too much i'd reckon.
