You can get them from UAS in Sydney....Pricey though $150 each. Check the bar carefully before you pay for it . Those lights are a push in...twist to lock idea and if the bar is not well made in these areas you are in for some hassles. The holes for the lights must be the right size with 3 cutouts , glass should be about 3 to 4mm thick around the holes. My bar failed miserably in this area ...amongst others. Good Luck

These ones look ok, they are good solid quality and use real globes not those nasty festoon things. They cost $40 each they are a trailer light,

Get clear nismo ones, I was lucky enough to have them on my GTR when I bought it - or, I've heard that FTO ones will fit too and are cheaper.

Jay - your car is so sexy man, I love it!! Where are the other pics?

Thanks for the input.... I was thinking about the gtr clear indicators from UAS (I actually purchased the Trial Front Bar through them) but the sales guy at UAS couldn't tell me how they fit on the bar without the plastic grill they are normally attached to for a GTR style bar.

I will wait till the car is back from the smash repairers on Tuesday and make sure of the size before purchasing $300 bucks worth of indicator globes.

I think I may be able to get them for half the price from BD4s in Gladesville, they mentioned they could give them to me cheap when i was there last week.

If anyone has a pic of how they actually mount in the holes that would be great!!

bit small.. but you can see.

Basically I had a GTR front bar on mine, with the proper GTR indicators. The panel beater just took the lens out of the surrounds, and they seemed to fit right in my 400R bar and look nice with the clear. He may have used some silastic in behind but basically they look like they belong there.

    • The new project has arrived. I have wanted one of these for such a long time, well before that meathead Clarkson drove one in Africa. I really wanted an E34 but I have some medical issues that mean I *really* can't bump my head and the lack of airbags in the E34 made it just too big of a risk.  I don't know why I've always liked these older touring BMW's to be honest, but man I love this car. She's been pretty well maintained for her 243k's with what appears to be only a single oil leak at the oil filter housing gasket. It has a bunch of updates including later model bumper and headlights, 7 series billion-way adjustable seats and it came with a few spares and another set of wheels with legal tyres. I got a unregistered car permit from the RTA and drove it back from Canberra on Saturday.                   First cab off the rank is cleaning it up for blue slip. I dont know how picky they'll be but I figured I'd clean the headlights, fix the oil filter housing gasket, replace the speed sensors (throwing errors) and swap the OE wheels (the M Sport wheels have a big chunk out of one of the tyres.) I also need to replace all 6 gas struts - 2 for bonnet, 2 for hatch and 2 for hatch glass. The car tries to eat me whenever i open any of these. My plan for this car; Ultimately, this is a budget car. I can't afford to throw lots at it and its because I have another car that I got this, if something breaks its no big deal. I will just maintain and repair it really. But eventually I want to do a manual conversion. It actually looks pretty straight forward for E39's and the trickiest part will be sourcing the parts.  I do need to replace some suspension arms or bushes because wow, she's a floaty old girl. She's also fantastically slow. Like really, really slow. When pulling back out on to the freeway on Sat after a quick pull over I needed to wait until no cars were visible before going.  Oh, and the guy I bought it from had a gorgeous R31 GTS-X in the garage. 
    • Do you have a picture? I assume it is a breather for gearbox oil as it expands, it should have a vacuum line run nice and high in the engine bay (R32 GTR has it on a top bellhousing bolt)
    • Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.
    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
