[Makesy]

Has anyone tried these?

I really fancy a set of JDM lights to replace my USDMs and saw these on US ebay.

If they are in good condition the price seems decent...on the other hand I don't fancy playing £200+ for something if it is known to be rubbish.

I've seen a 500EUR set listed in the classifieds, but that's a bit more than I'm willing to pay right now.

I, and others, have bought these - they are fantastic. They are 'blem' units, but you'd be hard-pushed to find anything wrong with them.

Once on, they look superb!

I believe a few members on here have purchased the blem units and have struggled to find anything wrong with them.

As for the 500EUR set I think its overpriced as they are probably the same ones!

Thanks Mike/Dan,

I was secretly hoping someone would tell me they were terrible and save me a few quid!

Make sure it fits VERY snug or say hello to exhaust fumes.

If anyone wants to put an order in I am picking up a set on my next US trip (I go a lot for work in California) and was going to pick up a set while that way. Next trip will be in January then again in March and also July so it will be one of these depending on the time I have while I am out there. Drop me a PM if you are interested.

No promises, just if dates work out and I am picking mine up at the same time.

I'm wondering if this is why my fumes are bad - I've got a blem set and a normal set of rubber.. But the fumes literally hurt my eyes.

Are these the same gasket that sit between the metal and the body of the light?

I’ve got a good set of tail lights gaskets for a 240z., shame I’ve got a 260z. Drop me a line if anyone needs a set.

Haven't bought any lights from him (don't need any...) but Jay Ataka of JDM Car Parts in USA is well respected, trusted and has a good trading history. I've bought parts from him in the past and have no hesitation in recommending him.

 

[Alphabettispaghetti]

I've had a set of the ebay 'blem' units. they were perfect.

 

[Wally]

Thanks for the feedback gents. I'll get a set ordered tomorrow.

I have this exact set and they're gorgeous imo:



They do come with the redundant (on non-jdm cars) parking bulb fitted though.

That's very reassuring. This is definitely one of the reasons I love this club. Usually somebody has done something before you.

Agreed, I bought of him. No problems, they look great.
