Where can I get a pair of front Whisker splitters to fit my TF?
Does anyone else make the Quad rear light conversion apart from Mike Satur?
Seem a bit pricey for what they are( not being tight fisted, just wondering!!).
I cant fit the Seat Leon splitter because my steep drive would quickly remove it!

not sure about "whisker splitter" but as for quads i'm only aware of mike satur selling the bases, to keep the price down you can then source a set of rear lights from a fiat coupe (£20-30 ebay). ofcourse you will need to factor in spraying so it's hard to envisage much change from £200 oh make that £250 if you want the stainless steel rings to finish them off. they do occasionally come up on ebay as a full set, i was lucky to pick mine up complete for £30 and they where BRG to match my car, not bad considering i sold my standard lights for nearer £40   |

I've never heard of a whisker splitter  As Grant says, the quad moulds are only available from mike satur unless you get really lucky and can pick some up second hand. I've got a set ready to go on my car and in total they've set me back £100 for the moulds (OH bought them for my birthday ;D), £60 for smoothing & spraying, £35 for the chrome finishing rings and £20 for the lights to go in them. Oh and a few quid for connectors. But they are by far the nicest looking lights in my opinion  |

by whisker splitters do you mean fins or slats that go on the side, i've seen them on ebay and they are quite reasonable, i'l have a look later and see if i can find them

Yep, that's them!
"Whisker" isn't something I've dreamed up, I've seen them called that on other websites!

Sorry, those weren't the ones I meant!
The one's I'd seen fit under each front corner of the bumper.
Seen a photo of them somewhere, no brand name just whisker splitter.

Hi Jan, sorry for the late response, yes those are the one's I'd seen.
Any idea who makes/sells them?
As I've said before, I cant fit the Seat splitter as my drive is too steep.

I don't actually know where they are from.. this is the only car I've ever seen them on. I'll send Jay (above cars former owner) a message and ask if she knows.
