Chris Green Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Jauce is the most expensive auction site to buy from. I bought my hyper revs from there, cost 1000¥ to buy, with there handling fees and packing fees it cost £54 by the time it was shipped. They only ship by EMS and it will take around 4 weeks to arrive. Also they charge all their handling fees on the customs paperwork so it ended up costing me £80 odd. Expect to pay any where between £130 - £170. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 just thought id add I bought my lights through bidjdm so as above prices seem to vary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jap91 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 You will pay top doller to get them to england mate.. Probly 70pounds all in.. They have to be sent to the auction house from the seller, Thats how they work it, so you have to pay the seller for sending them to the auction house, then pay the fees, and more fees. and few more, and then you get hit with a postage price! And when they are shipped they will get to you in four days, Yes four days.. Have bought loads of that site and never took longer than four days to arrive! Is a very exspensive site, Even tho products are cheap! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 That's with DHL. EMS spends 3 weeks in Coventry customs. Just an FYI you can buy the lenses from your local Toyota dealer for £18 + VAT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I would only buy from Japan if I knew for a fact you couldn't get it from here as people say getting stung off the tax etc having to wait a canny while it's not worth the hassle if it's not rare as hell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 That's with DHL. EMS spends 3 weeks in Coventry customs. Just an FYI you can buy the lenses from your local Toyota dealer for £18 + VAT.Which lenses? The lights above? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Yeah, I'll get you the part numbers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 RH 8155110320 LH 8156010300 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Yeah Toyota sell the lenses for less than £46 for a pair but you don't get the bodies which you need on the facelift lights as they have a larger top area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
russ78 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 RH 8155110320 LH 8156010300 so this would be just lenses no backings so you would need to split a set of 98 spec rear lights to have reflet rear lights ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet-Joshy Posted February 15, 2014 Author Share Posted February 15, 2014 Ahh ffs oh well,more money to spend lol.Next time I buy something from japan its gonna be off RHDjapan lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) The ones you've bought seem to have the cases as well so you should be fine.If you buy just the lenses you would need the separate rear cases which I think are like 50 each from toyota. They aren't 100% needed but to look there best when on they need them Edited February 15, 2014 by morgey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
