Well done Johann, you always seem to have a plan.

Brought the Indicators to this posting to bring things together!
Got the left indicator from Chevyworld today and just gave the silver edge a touch up. Only thing is that it is a Hella lens and the Original I have is a WTF. No problem unless you go looking for differences! . Opel had three manufacturers WTF, Hella and Bosch!!!
Was cheaper than the 136 Euro plus postage I would have paid!! Made new rubbers for both sides to be the same!

Is 'WTF' a real brand or; is it an 'unknown' hence 'WTF'?

Congratulations Johann. I'm sure you must be very happy.

Enjoy the Opel

Hullo and thanks,
WTF is an OEM brand as the original Aluminium base on both sides on the Opel are the same I happen to have a Hella base as well!
Part Numbers are different K23332 - WTF & K22642 - HELLA.

"WTF is an OEM brand "

When I read it the first time, I immediately thought "Oom Johan tou taalgebruik."
Then realised it is an OEM brand, not a chinese replica.

Here they are! Made new rubber seals for both bases from off-cut door seals. Had to align the drill holes on "Dup's" lens with a small stone and Dremmel. Worked!
