Aslong as the amber light can be seen in day light from the front its a pass (words from a police office)
Yes they are fine in my eyes so its not a problem (words from a non dodgey mot'er)

|v|ark you sure you didnt try the Golf mk2 Big Bumper ones as they are massive, it needs
to be the Small Bumper mk2 Golf. They are about 13cm wide x 9cm deep.

An indicator is meant to be seen as its for other road users benifit so they dont crash into you when you're maneuvering, not so you can hide them to look cool.


ps. they look stupid in the splitter

They are not in the splitter....

I don't like gash things stuck on my car so I was looking for some subtle ones to put on (not to hide them to look cool). And stating the obvious does not really help much....

Get some brighter ones to go behind the grill IMO!

Anything will do. If you get motorbike ones and they flash too fast, a resistor will solve that problem

I was looking at the resistors but seems like a bit of hassle. Id prefer the golf indicators as they just need wiring in but don't know how they sit behind the grill. Hows the car going mate? Any dates for the next guilford meet?

Bit too chunky, already looked at them. I think the width is fine but the height (of the front) is a too big and would be limited to where i can put them.
Thanks anyway mate

And with them off.

I thought you would be able to see the yellow reflectors more but you cant.
