Yeah wanted to keep it quite for AC for a week, so don't go posting on there

Yeah hopefully they will be on next Saturday. But found out if I want new inner bulbs that it's going to cost 116 quid from ebay

I will post on he in the wanted thread asking if anyone has some.

Nah I think im going to hang onto them since I paid 60 quid for them from holmesgsi on here. I still like them and I always would have the chance to swap them back if needed.

Sorry bud.

Cheers Chris, shouldn't take too long to get it to that stage.

Ok so another update with images of the work i've done today.

Marked up the bumper for the area I wanted the indicators to go in.

I've used a bit of my vinyl to block the missing light with for now. Plan is to get another light of maybe an air feed.

Cross member was pretty rusty, so while the bumper is off my dad rubbed it down and I use some sliver hammerite straight to rust paint on it.

How bad it was before the rubbing down.

Not so bad this side.

Painted with the hammered silver.

One Morette in

Marked up the bumper and used some of my vinyl masking tape to cover it in case of scratches.

One hole, slightly too big but wasn't that bad.

With the housing.

Once I got both in I wanted to give it another coat all over. It was a bit patchy around the sides and has got a few chips on it.

Indicator in with some screws, which I later had to take out as I needed something to hold them in properly with.

Drivers side in, with sidelights working

Just sidelights.

I had a bit of an issue when trying to put the bumper back on... erm basicly the crash bar was in the way for the indicators. So i've gotten rid of it for now. Don't know how bad it is to not have one in there but plan is to have it put back in but going to modify the way it fits.

So a couple of hours passed while I had dinner and it got really dark.

Bumper finally in with working indicators.

Lights on.

Working indicators

Comments guys,

I hope most of you like the way the car has gone

I will get some daylight photographs tomorrow and give it a wash.

Thanks again Donner.

I was going to, but i'm not totally sure if I want to colour code the bottom half now. I think it looks too good with the matt black front. Makes it look like a right Track Monster! X12XE Inside YO!

Thanks Ian, yeah i'm going to stay with this for a while now. Just going to sort out the GSI skirts and arches and should be done. Just want to look after it now and send it through the Vauxhall shows next year

Daylight shots guys.

Looks really smart that!

I was always dubious about fitting the indicators correctly because in the Max Power Haynes manual it shows them having to cut the crash bar to allow room at the back.

Looks fantastic mate, really like the look of this now!

As I said on AC, I was a bit concerned that the morettes would ruin it but they work so well!
