Cool Clear front indicator & sidemarker lenses for 951 & S2 now available

I just got mail from Joakim consernig 951 & S2 front blinker lenses.

Joakim has both of these readily available.See what he wrote to me:

Please tell the americans that i can deliver the
lenses, if they order some!

Front lenses t/s2 1150SEK
Sidemarkers 1200sek

Complete set

2200SEK

+ shipping ca: 15-20 dollars!!

Regards Joakim

You can reach Joakim from:
joakim-jansson@swipnet.se

These are quality items.I have a pair of his front indicator lenses and i must say they are really good. They make your 951 or S2 look much younger.
So these lenses are very easy to get, just send e-mail to Joakim!

Looks like about $275 USD + shipping for the complete set, going off of the current exchange rates. Not a bad deal, for what you get.

Maybe I was a little hard; after all, if it gave me a horsepower or two I'd put'em on my car!

Damian,

lot of 951 & S2 owners have asked for these lenses, so why bother to throw that "rice-grab"
I can see from your sign that you have yourself made same front indicator lense changes.If people have money to put these lenses it's their own business.
Different people consider different things as rice. I consider yellowpainted 16" cup wheels rice

Olli, good points all. However, I have the stock Euro front turn signal indicators, in orange-they're just longer across the front to allow one to remove the ugly US bumperettes. Two, the wheels, although they were a Porsche option, do look ricey. I inherited them from the previous owner, and they will be replaced as soon as funds allow. Three, you should have seen the aftermarket wood grain dash the previous owner installed as well! Most of that has been put back to stock, the remaining two pieces next to the steering wheel will come out next week when I change to the Euro Clubsport sport steering wheel.

I have seen some Porsches with clear lenses that look ok, but to me what makes it ricey is the fact that half the Honda's in the US seem to have undergone a similar 'upgrade'. And that's a club I wouldn't want to join.

I think that the look would be nice on my Arena Red car but $150 plus shipping seems steep for the fronts.
