328 Fog/Driving Lights

Although I am in Canada, my car is Swiss. If these will work, I would order a pair as a set of spares.

 

I don't know if these are a direct replacement for the Swiss model however I know they will fit the UK model although the type numbers on the glass are slightly different. I can't imagine there is any significant difference - especially given the amount these lights get used.

However, I have to say I cannot 100% say for sure. If you like I could send you a set and if they don't fit then send them back and I'll return your payment in full.

Let me know, meanwhile thanks for the interest,

Mark

Just FYI, US buyers

I just got off the phone with Fedex who was working on Customs clearance. Car lenses require a DOT approval form. It's a good thing that this is instead a "glass sculpture", and I have no intent to use it on my car.....

Just like the old "paperweights"

Got it?

 

Wow, sorry about that! I didn't realise there was that level of attention to things like this. Please let me know when you get them and if you think there is any simple way of avoiding this problem in the future.

Cheers

Mark

 

Can't imagine why it would be a problem to send glass sculpture to the US???

 

Received my set today.........

Many thanks Mark, excellent packaging.

If any of you are sitting on the fence getting splinters in your bum, pull the trigger, they are great.

Cheers,

Bob.

Thanks a lot Bob. Really glad you got them in one piece (2 actually) and you're happy with them. Good news as I think you're the first to receive as Tillman's got held up by the DOT police in the US.

Thanks for the heads up.

Cheers

Mine arrived a day or two ago, but since I'm living a very distributed lifestyle these days they aren't where I am right now. Should have my hands on them this weekend

 

Received mine today, thanks.

 

Finally got to my box today. They are fine and look great!

 

Hi Mark,

Received last week, perfect fit. Well done for your hard work on this.

Just to echo previous comments those sitting on the fence should make the leap. The only people who think these are expensive will be the ones who haven't tried to source them after breaking one (or two in my case), Trust me its a nightmare.

Cheers

Mark, I am sure you are right, they should fit my car. PM sent

I've learned to jump on these little custom parts when they show up, because if I don't they certainly won't be here when I need them.

 

That's strange... I know of at least one place that sells e-code headlamps for the Saab 900 here in the States. They're a "proper" BMW, Saab, Volvo parts supplier (not some fly-by-night ebay guy).

I can't see there being a problem, from a legal standpoint, until they're mounted on a car that is being driven on U.S. public roads (and of course I don't have the superior e-code design headlamps on my car..... at least I can't recall installing them..... I think..... as far as I know....)

 

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. I'm glad you received them all without too much problem.

I've now run out of the first batch I had made but I'll order more shortly. Anyone interested or have I saturated the market yet....?? !

It will take about another 3 weeks (Chinese New Year coming up here) to get the next batch so anyone who is interested please pm me and I'll start a list.

Thanks all

Got my pair yesterday, my wife says they look great. ( somehow this would sound better if switch around...) I haven't seen them yet as I am out of town.
Thanks a lot Mark!
there was no shipping problems to Canada.

Hi Mark,

I have a starburst chip in my right-hand lens. My car was first registered in France in November 1986 and so has yellow fog lights. I would like to retain this heritage, but don't know if the yellow colouring is in the lens or the reflective surface. Any thoughts? If all else fails, I may just replace both, although it sounds like a fairly intimidating process!

FYI, this is my car - I trust your lenses will fit:

Photograph One
Photograph Two
Photograph Three

Congratulation on a great initiative!

Regards, MARK PAUTZ

 

Ok, Ive looked at Bobs and I want em. How long have I got to save before you receive the next order.

 

Great...... do I get a spotters fee? LOL.

Bob.

 

Great Job Mark! Solid product at reasonable price.

Thanks Mike,

You've been through the process so you know whats involved in this - I really appreciate the comment!

If they only knew the time, money and fretting over the details. I am glad too see the product out and looking good. We need more people making unobtainium parts. I know it takes a huge risk up front, but it may be the only way to get some parts in the future. Again, you have a really nice product there.

--Mike

 

Mark - PM sent re next available batch.

Ciao e grazie,
