I did not get a confirmation e-mail or any information regarding the order at all. Just received the lenses.
And I’m not sure when the lenses arrived, as I where away working for some months at that time.
Some sort of communication with customers is always a good thing..

Since Joakim is from Sweden you could always use the Swedish 944 forum, where he is the "big boss" administrator .
That’s if you understand Swedish ... Lol
There is a lot of guys from Sweden here on rennlist that also frequent on that BB..
I could always send him a note as well , but it would surprise me if he is not a rennlist member/ or registrerd user himself and is aware of this post.

btw, could you post a picture of the lenses you got ?

you can order a pair of clear fronts for your car from xrteam on ebay for 40.00
they were sent to me in under a week and were the cheapest that ive ever seen.

Extreme auto, yup that is where I got mine (they include proper seals and srews) as did a buch other Listers. Very happy with the quality & speedy shipping. They did send out the wrong bulbs but that's not a real big deal as I didn't want to use yellow bulbs anyway.

When I received them inititally I contemplated posting a picture however decided I would rather give him the opportunity to make things right. Magically he responded to my email today. Nothing would make me happier to see the replacement set arrive and be of good quality. I will wait a few more days to see if the replacement set arrives and at that time I will post picutres of both. If it doesn't arrive, I'll post pictures of the first set.

I'd like to publically thannk Olli who was nice enough to contact Joakim a couple a times for me which I think was helpful.

At the end of the day, the customer should not be begging the vendor for product.

Yes but do they sell clear REAR lenses? That is the reason I purchased from Turn Clear.

Hello Rick, and everyone else.
I'm sorry to hear that you are unpleaseant with my service. I do understand that a lack of respons isn't a good sign, i will now try to get better and answer faster.
Your replacement sent has been sent out as promised last week. Usually it takes 5-7 business days for a package to arrive in US from sweden.

For every one's info i have also offerd Rick (two weeks ago) a refound of the total amount of payment if he get unpleasent with the replacement set which is already sent out now.

Regards
Joakim

You could always buy some from Klearz, then wait a year or two for delivery... I'm a month or two into my 2nd year now...

Did you see that Klearz is selling your lenses on Ebay?

Yeah, they keep selling "imperfect" lenses on there... I really have no idea what they are doing... But I'm sure that nobody from Rennlist will ever buy from them again.

I emailed them from that eBay listing, asking where my "perfect" lenses were. Their response was:

produce some perfect lenses. I know spring is here and everyone really wants
their order. We are working as fast as we can. Im hoping that within 1-2
weeks we will have the 944 orders for the ones who paid ready to be shipped.

Sorry for the long delay.

Yeah, and they are using a pic of MY car in their ebay ad, which annoys me to no end. I have no affiliation and do NOT endorse them.

I ordered a pair of front clears and rear blinker sections from Turn Clear/Joakim.Very fast delivery and very good quality. I can highly recommend his products.

I too was really happy with their product and delivery. However, I either did not get or maybe lost two of the stainless steel screws that hold the lenses to the body. The stock screws have too large of a head and I am having trouble finding screws that will fit. Does anyone know what screw they use in the kit or at least know where a guy can get them?
