NTDWM and obviously they could be crap.

Item will be shipped from the United States

May want to read the feedback to see if they send over here often

They are a very good price but there is alot of ppl shipping stuff from there and when its delivered they charge u the customs fee's.

hi just received mine 1st class service
delivered within 5 days mask spot on


Jon Ison - 2/3/05 at 07:13 AM

i was bought one off ebay for £30, dont know who the seller was but the mask is spot on, its a bit thin on the plastic side and maybe would,nt last long at work but for garage use, spot on.


JoelP - 2/3/05 at 08:31 AM

i paid about £180 at MM for mine


Steve&Steve - 2/3/05 at 09:31 AM

for under £40 inc P&P it's got to be worth it? one more recomendation on here and i think i'll buy one. Are they quite handy I need to buy a welding mask anyway, a standard one is £15+


Steve&Steve - 2/3/05 at 09:35 AM

Oh yeah and how much is custom's charge 'if' it gets checked on it's way into the country?

PS. I love the snow & it's giving it some in Leeds this morning"


JoelP - 2/3/05 at 09:42 AM

big time! and im driving a sierra this morning!

and yeah, the self darkening visors are a must in my books, with a normal one you cant see where the nozzle is before it fires up, unless you have very good lighting (rare in garage)

Bought one of those a coupla years back,shipped from the US but didnt pay any duty.Good bit of kit.
Cheers,
Bob

just bought mine sounds a great deal will let you know how it goes

There were auto-darkening visors on sale at Stoneleigh last year for £40ish.
I thought they were too cheap, so i didn't take too much interest in them.
If they're at this year's show might get one. Ebay ad doesn't show a brand name.

just thought i'd let u know I brought one of the self darkening visors off ebay it took about a week to arrive from the states. Just been using it for the first time and i couldn't belive how much of a difference it made well worth the money.

Hmm...... how quick do they react ???
Quick enough to blot out a number plate ??????

I think you might get pulled over if you had a couple of welding masks obscuring the rear number plate.

This was a rhetorical coment as I appreciate the glass does not work alone.
Sorry if I came across as a dime bar eater !
But it would be nice if someone could invent summat that did do said function.
