[hot_c210]

Just thought i'd let people know that i found a right hand stove top tail light for a c210 in clayton wreckers in vic. turns out he had one but he didnt have the centre trim or left hand light. $44! Brilliant!! Just keep looking theyre out there.

Yeah heres one. very lucky find. the bloke behind the counter came out at first with a set c110 lights then found me a c210 round taillight.

[Jono_c210]

gotta get me some of them

esp. if i can get em for $44 each.. haha

[Alfadog]

wow nice job........... so you have to find the left side now eh?

know someone who has a set of these but doesn't want to sell them

[hot_c210]

if ever i can get my hands on more than one set i will offer them up on sau for people to purchase. but until then. jast a waiting (and looking) game. im still looking for a left one also talking to importers but not getting far. im doing a tour o' the wreckers during the christmas hols, so im hoping that will prove to be fruitful.

i also know of someone who wont sell thiers. another wasted. they dont seem to understand how rare they are

Ok on my quest to find tail-lights i stopped in at a nissan dealer in croydon vic. and met a guy called clayton angel. he goes a bit out of his way (even tho he is paid to) to hunt down new old stock for old cars. his position is in the parts division. i talked to him today about finding tail-lights and bumper ends. bumper ends for a c210/c211 are $170 each new.

for the tail-lights i need to know the vin no. of a car that originally came off so i he can send back to japan requesting the correct part no. and then order the parts. as someone else said previously they're around $250 each and by the looks of things i think that sounds about right.

This is his work contact details for anyone who is hunting Most early nissan and datsun parts.

the email is to a toyota dealer but they sell toyota nissan and daihatsu.

Happy hunting

Cool. I was just at a Nissan dealer for some (bloody expensive) bushes... dont really need anything but if its NOS then it's worth having just to be all shiny and NEW. I will ask around in Japan for your enigmatic LHS tail light.

Take note that those are only the light units to replace stock JDM C210 lenses (no surround as shown on box). They appear to be aftermarket "tinted" lenses...

BTW, unfortunately I never heard a reply back from Yarra Valley.
