Ebay item....to trust?
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

anyone had good/bad experiences with these. opinions? they're much cheaper than bavauto so im willing to go for it if no one is too worried.

thanks,
brad

Remember, you get what you pay for... my tails from ebay have been great. No errors or failures up to this point and I've had them since december now...

I see no reason not to just go through normal sources. Ebay can be full of surprises :bounce

528man 06-04-2005 07:47 PM

some good some bad....surprises that is

That's the guy my brother got his tails from, if you want I can take some pics for you in the morning.... And no he hasen't had any problems, HOWEVER, unlike OEM they leave a bit more space between your trunk and lights them self... Just let me know if you want me ot take pics

528man 06-04-2005 08:14 PM

i would like that rooz. that space doesnt casue water vapor or water to leak in does it? thanks

Rooz 06-04-2005 08:17 PM

no, Actually I think the extra space is made so that they can sell some of those "fillers" you must have seen them on ebay chrome... color matched... heck I'll take pics of both my mom's (OEM) and my borther's in the AM tomorrow...

Rooz 06-05-2005 10:16 AM

Well, I took the pics, but for some reason, I can't seem to be able to move the pics from my camera to my comp... :(

delmarco 06-05-2005 10:19 AM

Yeah, basically official stuff from the bmw factory. OEM is stuff that isn\'t aftermarket.
