Hey guys, so I bought an indicator from uk and had it sent over here low and behold it's the wrong one for my car it looks like it's too short in the hole. I'm thinking about butchering the lamp to get the glass off and stick it on mine for now. But, before I do that has anybody got one I'll take both sides if you have them can pay via PayPal just need shipping to New Zealand lol sorry!
Cheers lads

You will have bought a 2.0 NA one. The lens wont fit the Turbo indicator cell. Common error. Turbo indicators are like hens teeth! NA from Renault, very hard to find 2nd hand.

It's such a shame I mean it's look exactly the same height and everything but the lens is different if I was to take the lens off would it fit my old one? All it is is it looks so bad without one I just thought If it fitted I'd try hunt one down from a Renault dealer in the mean time. I mean would you guys have any access to someone in a dealership that could help? As you can imagine little old New Zealand is literally at the end of the world! Haha! So finding anything is seriously a shot in the dark every time. I can pay via my credit card or pupal if one is found? I need a drivers side. Both if possible as everything happens you buy one then your hunting around again to find another. Thank you for the advice so lovely talking to people who know instead of being told no sorry havnt a clue haha

Oh shit! Fair enough. I think the only thing I can do is take the plastic lense off and stick it on my indicator. Such a shame. Oh well I'll have to keep looking around! If you guys hear of any please let me know.

I did look at 3D printing replacements, it's possible but the costs for initial development were far too high against demand.

This is worrying as mine are starting to really show signs of age, not really keen on converting to NA front end and I have got two BNIB headlights for when they need replacing.

Ok so what I've had to do is dremmil the plastic lense off the new part smooth it all down and then clear silicone it on and plastic adhesive. Will look better than a broken lense looks nice in the hole will have to make due until one is found. So if you guys find one I'll pay double haha
