Howzit Guys,

I know there aren't many of us on these forums, so this may be a long shot. :(

I'm looking for anyone in South Africa who has or knows where I can get two E34 Fog lights. The original ones. I've tried everywhere here, and I just can't seem to find a pair.

Any of you guys have an idea where I can get them from in this country?

Shot, guys.

Rob. :)

Rob,

Seems that your country is nearer to Germany than most of the other nationalities here. I supposed Aussies are the fardest away from Germany. Why dont you try to order from some German sites ?. Prices are good I heard.

Thanks guys, appericate all the replys. :)

Barry and Uber Soldat, any idea on what the they cost?

Barry, I will try get hold of a dealership near by and see what they want for a pair. Probably 500 bucks a piece knowing them. :(

Here prices for compariosn, maybe it is cheaper you buy in USA and let them send it by USPS priority airmail, that is much cheaper than DHL or FedEx. Do lnow how lomg that takes to ship to your country, but usually I get it to Japan within 10 days

Nope, I was completely wrong. BMW in South Africa down here want R1675 per light!

And R250 for the sensor, plastic covers that go next to them, that's each. A ****ing rip!

Can one of you guys up in JHB get me two of these lights and send them down, I'll obviously pay for the light and for shipping, please! :(

Shogun, the Rand is 6.78 or so to one USD. So I think it would cost me a lot more. :( Thanks anyway

Thanks all!
