I'll have to look back through my old phone book but I'll try tomorrow. Have you tried e-mailing through his website? The PM on here doesn't always get through.

I hear from a friend who knows him that he is in new zealand at the moment i think he is back in a couple of weeks. I'm after some clear rears aswell!

I hope he's going to come say hello then!

I've sent Richard a text to ask if he minds us giving his number out on a public forum!

Im usually more interested in go, than show, but Im quite tempted by these. Is it a big job to remove the original lenses?

Time diff here is 12 hours (we're ahead) until your clocks change, then it will be 11 hours. Incidentally it's now 3 weeks since our clocks changed and this forum still doesn't know [8|]

I might drop Richard a text in a bit.

Thanks for the replies guys - I'll wait till your next post Fen! Am I sensing a group buy opp here?

Think it depends on how handy you are with a Dremal... I believe Richard used to offer a service of fitting the lenses himself but gave it up as the time spent on it meant it wasn't cost effective for him, which perhaps tells its own story. Would love a set of clear rear lenses but don't think I would be confident doing it myself. [&o]

I already have clear lenses all round and I'm contacting him to meet for a beer if he's near me, but I can let you know if he replies.

I'm in the process of doing this and tbh its not that bad a job, a little nerve racking at first but just chop away itl be fine The biggest problem for me was getting the balance right between getting enough of the mastic stuff in and putting too much on so it goes everywhere. I failed first attempt []

I've heard back from Richard, he's away for a few weeks so e-mails will be picked up when he's back.

Thanks for the update Paul

Alex - do you mean when putting the whole tailight unit back into the car, or the clear lens into the unit? I'm gonna have a crack with the unit still in the car and really take my time!
