    Why?

    There seems to be an established fact that with the LWB cars the front right turn signals are always the hard ones to find. And when you do find one they’re in poor condition. Anyone have a theory? Bad depth perception?

    Now for my hidden agenda...

    I *really* need a good solid LWB front right turn sign housing, U.S. or Euro. Anyone?

    Thanks,
    JohnA (that’s the name I started with here around 15 years ago)

    I was always told that the right front is more often damaged in an accident because the driver's instinct is to put the maximum amount of sheetmetal between him/her in a frontal collision. Unable to verify.

    OK. All we need now is for someone to sell me a left (driver) side so I can trade it to Bob for a passenger side. Don't you dare sell it directly to Bob.

    No, it is hard to find good originals here too!

    More crap/water/salt on the side of the road?. We'd need to check if left fronts are worse in UK and other drive-on-the-left countries.
