These arrived promptly (as per my usual orders from this company) and are re-assuring quite heavy. I removed the existing standard fitted rings & used a sealant/adhesive to ensure a secure fit. Look very smart. To remove the rings is quite easy - push the unit gently towards the rear of the car & it pops out - carefully push out the lug holding the bulb & then fit in reverse. Care need to be taken not to scratch the paintwork and to ensure the wire falls back through the panel.

Seem to be a heavy quality metal item, however I fitted them using good quality clear silicone with the repeaters removed from the car. After two days they were loose. Now stuck with Araldite but they are not a good fit. Rather disappointed. On MK 3.75 2 litre Sport Venture model 2014

Silicone didn't work! Am going to try Araldite. I suggest removing the units from the car before fitting these rings.

Easiest way to fit these is to remove the repeater from the car, making sure the wire and connector don't fall back through the hole!Get some good quality clear silicone sealant and smear around the black plastic rim of the repeater. Twist the metal ring onto the repeater and smear the silicone across the joint between repeater and ring. This won't be seen once the repeater is refitted. This should keep the ring in place. The repeater can be removed by pushing the unit towards the rear of the car which compresses the clip. Reinstall action is simply the reverse. Did these in about ten minutes. I'll update if they fall off!

Discussed with the shop when bought.However, they just did not fit on my car for some reason or other.Spoke with the shop and they are looking into any reasons why they didn't fit...............Great returns and bought the OEM Mazda ones which fitted a treat.

Basically the ones I received just did not fit. Had to return and reordered the OEM Mazda ones which were great. Whether the 3.75 model is different may be one of life's little mysteries.... MX5 staff great as always though.

I fitted a pair of these last summer, and have now lost one. I used superglue to attach them, which I now note states it is not suitable for conditions of immersion or constant damp (which describes Lancashire weather in Winter 2013/14 - unfortunately my car is not garaged). It is a shame these rings only slip over the original trims, rather than clip firmly to the indicator repeater, but the fact that I am ordering another set means I have rated them above average. Having one missing certainly highlights how much they improve the look of the car.The big question now is do I use clear silicon sealant or Araldite???
