Do you mean a Haynes type Ja or a FIAT Workshop manual? I have 'a few' Haynes I could part with but not a spare Workshop manual I'm afraid.

Let me know Wink

I'll dig one out and bring it with me to Gaydon next week. You can decide if you want it when you see it. Wink

There are a couple of Haynes manual's on ebay, one is "brand new" looks like it is still in the cellophane it's starting at ?3.00, another used starting at 99p.

Hopefully (if I have done it correctly) I have attached the link

People will buy from the cheapest (or should I say "better value for money") source so if items sold here are cheaper than ebay then they would buy from here. Walezy sells his kits to our members for less than  he sells on ebay so why can't other sellers do the same?

No I didn't! Please read my post again. I simply said that buying indicator units from Yagmur or even Serbia might work out cheaper than the ebay prices quoted by Mirafioriman. I was referring to:

a seller on there who often has them about 29 Euro a pair. Postage to the UK is reasonable and they take Paypal. Just got a pair myself.....

I don't know your prices and I would never be as unfair as you seem to think I am and steer buyers away from you.

look guys, i didn't want to kill anyones prices, trust me, it's simpler to buy parts online or from forum members that live nearby, than from serbia or turkey. we're both out of eu and any payments to us are more complicated than within eu. also, the parts i'm offering are not original fiat parts and they're not as good as original. my expirience with those side indicators and bumper lights that are produced in serbia is that they definately could be of higher quality. f132 uses those same indicators and i have them on my car. they're ok if you can't get original ones. same goes for all parts as far as i know. even some parts produced within eu are of poor quality. i've bought a front right wing (wheelarch, fender or whatever you call them?) from a belgian manufacturer some years back, and it was 4mm shorter than it was suposssed to be. it took some gimnastics to fit it, trust me. yet it was much better than one on my car that was crushed and rusty. if i had an option of buying an NOS part or that one, trust me, i wouldn't think a second about the price.
by the way, i'm not a professional parts dealer, cars are just my hobby, i'm a professional locksmith.
also, i've found same problems that you're talking abouth on other forums. i'm a member of lada club serbia for a year now, and i can see that there's almost no deals done between members of forum and club. in my personal oppinion, 90% of people on forums just talk and do nothing for real. didn't mean to offend anyone, specialy since i'm new around here and don't know any of you guys.

I don't think anyone accused you of anything djape1977; it's me who has been accused of being unfair when I am sure I wasn't.

I agree with you that buying Fiat original is much better than buying copies and buying locally is much better than buying from abroad. In fact, the indicator units mirafioriman is referring to (if they are the one I think) are copies made in India and not very high quality.
