Rom Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":confused:" border="0" alt="confused.gif" /> Just purchased a pair of those chrome indicators for the front of the lupo, but the people i bought them from now want to know what i need according to the pins on the bulb.. are they opposite or offset? what should i tell them?this is exactly what the guy sent..."Dear romillywinter,romillywinter, To avoid any delay in shipping the bulbs can you please confirm, as per the listing, whether you requirethe opposite pin or offset pin type bulbs.The bulbs you have purchased will have the pins at either 6 o'clock (opposite)or at 8 o'clock (offset). We can forward photos of bulbs showing layout ifrequired.It is confirmation of the bulb pin type we require and not the vehicle details.To eliminate any inconvenience and to ensure the correct bulbs are sent wewill ship only when confirmation has been received.Thanks for your purchase"Any help would be great!

lunalupi Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Either take one out of yours and have a look, or pop into somewhere like Halfords and check which one they list and look at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupodave Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I think* they are offset.*but could not be. I can't remember when I took mine out but.. open the bonnet, grab the back of the indicator, twist it and pull it out. Undo the bulb and have a look. Takes less than 1 min.

Philplop Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 I think they're rear bulbs.At least they asked you first. I bought some chrome ones from eBay, saying they fitted a Lupo. When they came they were the wrong ones. I then had to pay the postage to send them back so they'd send me the correct ones. Tossers.Anyway, since I'm such a thoroughly smashing chap, I've just been out to the garage to check. They're the opposite type. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
