No indication of "E" marks either.

well, they'd definatly scare the cats away

Suppose you could "smoke" the orange and clear bit with a bit of laquer with some pigment mixed in.

I think they look ok, stick out too far for me though, would the top "over hanging" bit be ok for IVA?

Good find, if you could let us know what they are like.

I sent this to the seller last night:

Dear boloromo,HI I'm looking at buying a set of these for a kit car, can you confirm if they have a n"E" mark and if so what Class / Catagory.Many Thanks

and got this back:

Hi,I am sorry but the lights don't have E mark.Best regards-

boloromo

After reading the IVA manual it would seem that these would be usable... as side,brake,reverse and indicators do NOT need 'E' marks

Hmm... Don't think thats right.
I believe a few on here have failed IVA for wrong E marks on lighting, and I had a car fail SVA for rear light lenses without E marks.

Suggest someone buys a pair and reports back, - oh the OP is doing
