Default FRST morette headlight air intake conversion

Does anyone know if a kit is available for the FRST morette headlights, to convert the inner lamps to air intakes? I've seen some on a FRST for sale on ebay. Maybe the guy had them specially made? Any helpo would be great

Default morette

there is not a kit for this as i have the headlight conversion on my fiesta but what i did and other friends have followed is to fit an air induction trumpet (size 110mm to 120mm) i have 120mm and is a perfect fit into the two inner light holes as they are only used for side lights but the main lights have a plummet in the back for the side light so this is no problem atall, the trumpets are for sale on ebay cheap. hope this helps

ok if you cannot find them on ebay the other option is to use a induction trumpet which two come in a set from halfords they are pipercross ones and they come in silver, white, blue, red and black.
hope it helps
