Velvet Cooper Minisport quad lights rust

Hello people,

I was just wondering where i stand,

I have had my quad lamps on my car for 3-4 months and have now noticed rust around the bolts holding the lamps to the bar.

I know rust spreads fast and was wondering if i should contact mini sport or will i have nothing to go on???

Thanks,
Richard

I had exactly the same problem with some Wipac ones I bought, I think you're supposed to keep them oiled or something so they don't rust

My brother had the Minisport quad lights on his One, and they rusted in a few months. He got a replacement set from Minisport for nothing, sold the new set and put the money towards a set of Cibie Tangos.

So definitely worth contacting Minisport, the "Yungli" lights they sell in that kit aren't the best quality
