Must have been for main indicators not side repeaters

Definitely not.

The front main indicators had orange bulbs in a clear surround, rear are again orange behind a "red" lens. All were working.
The garage specifically said that the orange lens (over the clear bulb) was fading requiring an orange bulb. It's on the bill.
The ONLY orange lenses are the side repeaters.
The ONLY clear indicator bulbs were (and still are) the side repeaters.

I think I was had. :mad: And for such a silly small amount too. :tuttut:

What is wrong with some people? If they are in that much need to rip someone off for the price of a bulb or two there is help available.

Being generous, lets assume they "intended" to do it and was noted, forgot in the workshop, it passed the MOT anyway and correction was just overlooked.

If you're going to fiddle things like that you won't make much money, so in this case I think ****-up trumps conspiracy. :ROFL:

My orange bulbs arrived just now but it's raining. :(

Which is why I'm not in France sitting in the square in Boulogne old town sipping a beer before tucking in to a Plat de Fruits de Mer in Aux Pecheurs d'Etaples. :-(

That'll teach me to buy cheap LED bulbs on eBay! :tuttut:
They're pathetic, and more yellow than orange.
Off to order some "proper" orange wedge bulbs..... :o (the "chromed" sort that only show orange when lit :cool: )

But I've fitted the clear repeaters anyway, they'll do for now. Car looks a lot better. :D
Surprising how such a little change can have a big effect, but the main corner indicators are already "hidden" so these were an obvious anomaly.

I might well follow suit and fit some 'proper' A4 ones too.... get rid of the chavvy Halfrauds specials on mine (stuck on with double sided sticky tape)

These fit properly, exact match to the cutouts including the retaining lug and catch. +++
