I'm happy to pay for it.

I'm confused... if you were willing to pay more, in those last few seconds, why did you place a bid for less?

It was basically because I out a bid in for £160 thinking that would be plenty and it went straight over that but because I did it right at the end I didn't have enough time to put a higher bid in and I lost it, the name of the game in an auction site.
Still looking for an original one, top price paid!

Someone beat me to it! Thanks for sending the link though. I can't believe these are so hard to find, they used to be ten a penny!

Just get a OMP one. its does the job, I genuinely do not understand why people pay silly amount of money for the t5 and t5r parts.

Baffles me. It's like i said before i have now got 3 sets of Volvo titans alloys. Already sold 1x set pending collection.

So I'm wondering should i put the 3x sets for sale here for £2000 hhahahaha

Well, funny you should say that, I bought an OMP one back in January and tried to fit it a couple of months later, doesn't fit at all, I think they sent me a LHD one! it's all wrong, Unfortunately I have lost the receipt so I'm stuck with it.
