im starting to get sick of paying lots of money for aftermarket Taiwanese parts only to find out that they dont work. example indicator switches, not sure if its just the one that i bought, that has been wired up wrong in the factory, or they are all like that. also front indicator/park lights, bolts in the back are in different positions to the holes in the front apron, as well as the lowest grade plastic you could find for the lenses. i could go on lol.

So why haven't you been buying the good stuff out of Japan?

B-Pro even has a local Australia branch...

it's funny though i was just thinking this arvo it would be good for all of us to compile a list of things that just aren't worth buying... those front parker/indicator lenses are definitely one of them

(edit) also those "new front chrome bumpers" have resulted in some peeved customers

lol the stuff should be dirt cheap because its all simple stuff, i used to work in a factory making wiring lumes,electronics, light, lenses, buttons, etc for ford, holden and even bmw so i know what quality is and datsun stuff could be made to a great standard because its all simple no crazy side folding power mirrors like F350 trucks... it should be dirt cheap and good quality
