As silly as it sounds, bought some cheap ebay smoked side repeaters for the B, ended up being a shocking fit and throwing them in the bin. Not worth the hassle and time sending them back. Can anyone recommend some decent ones that will actually fit!?

I bought the same as you once mate, returned them and got a refund.
Try another seller on eBay, that's where I got the ones that fitted.

those ones from ebay require a bit of trimming to fit .... if you look at the little springy clip bit on the standard ones you will notice that the ebay ones have a lot of excess plastic that actually prevents it from clipping into place.
just cut it off and it fits nice

i had a slight problem with one of them but that was because of some wire behind the panel so it wasnt quite pushing in as far as the adjacent side. problem was solved though so everyones happy.

On the cheap horrible ones that are chrome coated style on the inside, if the bit where the bulb goes into is straight instead of angled like the standard ones, then they're just not worth it. Return them and get a refund before you damage them and they still don't fit because you'll be left with nothing.

If Supernovas is still going I got mine from there - they were superb and Vauxhall fit rather than Ford fit which most from eBay were.
