I have a set on my /6, and Scott Schroeder weants them pretty badly. If they're relaly worth $850 (I assume that's new parts price) I might sell 'em off. I doubt it, 'cause they're pretty cool, but... BTW - I sent this guy an email asking for pics a couple of days ago and heard nothing back. |

Is anything French worth $850.00 these days (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) ? ok maybe a monet or manet painting, but then again, you dont hang them from your car. seriously, that price is outragous. Glen sagger had a set up for sale last year. If i remember correctly they were slightly more expensive than standard euros. maybe contact him to see how he aquired them.

Mike,
I was thinking about your car when I saw this add. I can't believe the asking price... They sell the white ricer lenses for affordable prices.. I'm sure somebody could manufacture these things new and sell them for 1 or 200. Also, If these things were sold in france.. then there must be a french ebay or french contact that could get some and import them..... If you find out what they are worth.. I'm curious.. thanks brant |

The difference in the Euro's and the French lenses is that the reverse part of the lense is amber instead of clear.
I have a set of euros that I am converting to French and will sell them for $750.00. There you can save $100.00 and as alway's money back if not satisfied. CCLIN911 |

Mike I am sorry you can not paint your euros and sell them for $700. That must be left to professionals. Thanks you for your inquiry. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Craig,
Are you the person who sells the front euro turning indicator conversion kit? If not, does anybody know where I can get them? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) |
