I've been looking at a set of Morette lights, They list pre and post 97 though. What's the difference?

I did think along those lines. Was just double checking as I have a GSi bumper on my post 97 car.

both pre and facelift have the auto adjusters... 
 
 
it's for the indicator's, as the bumper's are diff, so they have to be different

Cheers Ste, when you say the indicators are different are they the type you drill into your bumper?  
I thought they were all the same and I wouldn't fit them to my car anyway, They'd ruin the flow

yea just the indicators are different can have headlight adjusters on pre or post. its where they fit in the swage line in the bumper. get the ones to match the bumper not the car.

thought so, as i've had both pre and post, and they've both got auto adjuster so i thought it couldn't be that

Doesn't matter to me which indicators really as I won't fit them, I'll have to hide them somewhere behind a grill or in the foglights maybe. 
 
Just a thought, I'm prepping a reiger bumper would that be pre of post?

By the looks of it no difference in the actual lights, Just different fitting indicators

I think they're designed to fit in a certain position on the bumper, They must have a certain curve depending on pre or post.  
Doesn't matter to me as I think they look pants anyway

I know of people drilling a hole carefully into the morette headlight casing and fitting the indicator bulb inside the morette.
