The guy says at his work, he makes Proton's cars?

what?

I'm confused. He says he's located in the Netherlands, not Hethel.

+1, my first thought was that those lights would have a much happier home on an 05 Elise.

Where did you get those lights?

I just came back from having a brake light replaced under warranty on my 07, two led's were burned out so they had to replace the whole unit.

Lotus' price on the one unit was $287.00!!!

I've gotta believe some other car maker in the world is using those lens, and their price would be under $100 each.
