After a set of Visa, C15 or mk1 BX round side repeaters for my 'make a BX sport lookylikey' project, found that Mk1 wings have slightly different side repeaters that are shared with a few other early 80's citroens.
Cheers for reading!

Could Citroen themselves still help with these mate? The C15 did run for quite awhile....

Probably rather spendy. Will dig up a part number and price check but I'm not hopeful cost wise.

The first person I think of when it comes to hard to find Citroen parts is ruffgeezer. Tim, don't s'pose you've got any for Rich please? Or know someone who might?

Hullo Hullo, I think I've one C15 one here, but the problem is with them is that they are curse word, they get corroded in the body of the indicator and drop to bits, so any second hand ones are probably going to be short lived, the ones we keep aren't far behind your price up there, and I must confess on my last c15 I binned them and put some licky sticky halfords ones on that I found in the garage.

Fair enough. I've also since realised that the c15 and BX mk1 repeaters aren't the same anyway, just hoping that they might fit the hole. Going to probably modify the square Mk2 ones seeing as round indicators on a square car looks odd..

In that case, I'll ask at work and see if we have any mk1 Bx ones in stock, we might have some second hand ones.

Ok I checked today, and the part no for the Mk1 bx indicators is superseded by the C15 one, we don't have any in stock but I'd advise getting new ones as when fitted to a C15, they cop all the road dirt and then rot out inside.
