Saw a ps/b cooper today with the clear lights at the back...looked great

Help me decide if I should go for white lenses also.

also, how easy to retrofit?

dealer quoted £275 fitted.

Surely someone has a picture of these lights on a DS mini!

I've seen the clear lenses on a Dark Silver/Black S, looked horrible.

DocT,

Don't even think about it. The clear lights are an ugly fad IMHO.

The regular lights look much better on DS, giving a nice contrast to the DS colour. Also the whole impression of having the lights modelled on the mini, away from the shut line, which is one of the things that really makes the rear view of the car, works best with the standard coloured lights. I think my neighbour's new silver BMW compact with clear rear lights looks awful!

looks like i am the only person who likes those

i think they look great and really add to the moody effect of the DS / Black

I concur, They look great on Pure Silver but awful on DS
