When I get my car, am I able to go back to the garage when they are available and get them fitted ? If so, how much would that cost ?

Is that parts and labour ?

After visiting IAA Frankfurt it seems that there are 2 different LED taillights.

On the R20 they were much darker, more black.............maybe that's why you have an "K" or an "R" at the end of the part number..........

Curiouser and curiouser... Must get to the bottom of this. €300-350 fitted seems about right to me. They look sweeeet :drool:

Will get them myself then. If its anymore than £300 I wont bother.

Don't forget you'll need 'RHD lights' in the UK, otherwise the fog light will be on the wrong side.
