i've fitted some lucas 488's rear stop/tail and indicaters which i gather are just general replacement lamps for certain older cars. maybe were used as standard in various makes and models way back in the stoneage?...
don't have a photo at the mo but just little round beauties!

Front end is marvelous! But rear is :- , lets say strange. Don't take this as insult, its my opinion. But  [-/ for the effort!

this is true! i agree, once i'd removed the bumpers and trims it just seemed like the lights were sticking out a lot tho so i thought f**k it and took them out!   then the was no going back! no more plastic screws for me at least tho  ;D

thanks!  :) exhaust is standard, with the end cut off! then i cut the chrome pipe off a mk4 or 5 escort box welded it into a plate i made, and welded the plate onto my box! then painted it with black exhaust paint... it looks ropey close up but un-noticable normally! cut and shut!
