[DeTomaso] NPC: Lambo parts?

[thomas]

Heh, yeah :)

He had issues with ignition coils burning out on his Diablo, and at around $900 a piece we checked for alternatives. Turned out that the same coil was used in Fiat Tipos, and they could be had for next to nothing. Ultimately the problem was a bad connector on the coil and after replacing that there were no more coil problems.

That said, the rear lenses can't be found on any Fiat. Parts are however often much less in the US than what we get to pay here.

I've even bought OEM parts for some of my audis from the US as they were like 1/3 the cost compared to here.

I've seen the lenses for around 2200 per side. No idea what the Swedish distributor wants for them.

   Anyone know where to get a set of rear lights for a 2007 Murcielago
   LP640 at a fair price?
   My cousin has just bought a new toy and it seems that someone smashed
   the lights for the previous owner. Perhaps the fact that it is a Greek
   car has something to do with that.
