they look pretty nice. Obviously E marked as they're original, but they must be illegal? No reflectors?

Agree with Alan, really don't think you'd be able to see the reflective strip through the paint!

They will be illegal due to the reflectors being obstructed by the tint. As for the price i say at £40 (min price including postage) it would be a semi reasonable price to pay if you are uncertain of your own skills at spraying.

To do it yourself would require a spare set of clusters- £10 from a scrappy
special light spray paint - £10
your time to practice and to spray - £?????????

 

[james betley]

you can buy reflectors that stick on

Yeah but that looks pants!! Trust me, i had to put some on for my MOT!! Lol. They do look nice tho.

Get a small reflector put in the bumper, I'm cutting a reflector to say 'K10' then I can tint my lights completely

They may still be legal. As long as the reflector works when a light is shone on it they are legal. My Mondeo had tinted lights just like that and passed MOT with no problems as the reflector still worked.

I guess it depends on the level of tint done. The one in the listing looks quite dark!

 

[PeteST24]

Oh yeh they are dark. If I was interested in them I would ask the seller to take a picture of the reflector shining through.

If not as mentioned you can buy a couple of reflectors and put them on your bumper.
