I'm looking to replace the side repeater on Dad's Cinquecento Sporting with something less... round. I'm looking for suggestions, measurements etc. As way of opologies for this tedium, here's some pics from Facebook:      And something a little festive:  |

I usually just go down the scrapyard and grab some that I like the look of. Round, oval, oblong and triangle are easy enough to get hold of, then just file the hole in the wing out to the right shape and bung em in.

I use fiat 126 repeaters on mine suit the car a lot better than the round ones IMO they needed fettling to fit mine are also screwed in from the back the wiring connector also needs the wiring connector cutting off and replacing with spade connectors

 Stuck bog standard Ford repro items on mine because they was cheap, I was skint and they were the same colour as the front indicators. Took a few minutes with a file to adjust the holes to suit. Daubed a bit of paint on and pushed the new ones in- they just clipped in and stayed put. I forget what did with the wiring. I think I crimped some butt joints onto the wiring. So long as you don't drop it inside, it can all be done without having to take the plastic inner wheelarches out. I'd looked at the newer ones as put on the Fiat Coupe' too, but Fiat at the time wanted too much for a pair. --Phil |
