Just wondering if anyone has any smoked/tinted side repeaters like this or this?

If so, would love to see some pics with how they look on a Leon (especially a platinum grey one ;))

I used to have some like the first link you posted (but not mirrored), but they were Fiesta ones because regular Leon ones didn't fit my FR. The bulb holders are different, but I think you should be OK with your SX, but don't quote me on that lol!



But they used to mist up all the time so I changed them and just used tint spray on my standard side repeaters which I think looks much better anyway!

Cheers for all the replies & photos :D

Look really good, can't wait for someone to pop along and post a pic of them on a platinum grey leon though :whistle:

I think that is correct about it being the facelift models that need Fiesta repeaters, so I would guess then that yours does, but I'm not certain. Maybe someone else will know for sure.

If you can take a photo of the bulb holders and the opening on the back of your standard repeaters I might be able to help, I might even have a picture of mine lying around somewhere to compare!

Cheers that'd be a great help.

Getting chance to fiddle about with the car tomorrow so will get a pic then and compare!

standard ones use clear bulbs; it is the reflector itself that is orange..

Ah fair enough!

Looks smart! That looks like a facelift model too. So I think it looks like I'll have to get the Fiesta Mk6 ones (i still don't understand why the Fiesta ones fit though :shrug:)
