Best price for darkline lights?

Chris H · 07-15-2011, 07:01 AM

I've been looking around for a set of darkline lights and the best price i've had so far is £240 + p&p, is there anywhere out there that do them cheaper?

Sytner offer a 15% parts discount to members so try dropping Anneka @ Sytner a pm...

ps I paid £145 brand new from BMW Blackpool last year I can't believe how much price has gone up!

Keep checking flea bay.I missed out on a set,last month that went for £150.
Within a day there was another set for sale which I managed to bag over 19 other bidders.
I did have to pay £160 for the privilege but they were mint and boxed.
Easy to fit and look very nice!

It's shocking how much these desirable items have shot up in price over the last 12-18mths.

I was bidding on both they sets! I set my limit at £140 as surely its better to buy brand new after that?
Seen them new for £190. For what its worth billy ray your set looked better than the ones that went for £150.
Just think when you pay £160 and then postage it isn't really worth buying 2nd hand.
Might be an option to see what the Synter discount is for a new set?

or

Not sure how to get them for £165 tho?

Wonder if it would be possible to get a group buy? Done it with my alloys....maybe could gauge interest?

Pablo Pablo · 07-16-2011, 05:32 AM

|I'd be up for that.

Metalmickey · 07-16-2011, 09:21 AM

Yeah I'd have a set too, I also missed out on eBay ones!

Chris H · 07-16-2011, 12:17 PM

If there is a group buy sub £200 i'd be up for that

Thanks for the link, these are now bought

Dr Dave · 07-17-2011, 04:33 AM

That was a good buy!

Martin 335d · 07-17-2011, 01:17 PM

I had to pay more than £100 though but I'm still happy with the price paid

Note that the ebay seller seems unaware that E90 and E91 lights are different.

If these are indeed E91 lights as per the picture - and you need E91 lights - then no problem. Best to check!

My 1st question to the seller was what type of car they came from, touring which is what I need

incablue · 07-20-2011, 10:26 AM

german ebay site is the place to look. you gotta think outside the box

I haven't got round to ordering any yet (too many other expenses at the moment!).

http://bit.ly/qbe4yE

roughly €205 delivered for E91 blacklines, equates to about £180 i reckon.

Found these

and these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Where do you stand legally. Genuine ones are i presume kosher but replica ones i have doubts ? Is it simply that they require "E" markings ??

Wonder if there has ever been a legal challenge against blacklines following a rear end shunt ?
