Remove the drivers inner, thats all Stu. I used a 4x4 domed speaker grill on my old quads & worked well.

I dont think the ambers are working well with the quads. Oh & the wheels look crap

I prefer the standard lights, but if your keeping the morettes then I think it would look better with the inner lamps removed.

Standard lights for me also, especially with ambers.
Morettes look goggle eyed.

I like the Morettes mate far better than the Granada lookalike lights looks meaner i think but thats my own opinion might look better with clear flasher lamps.

Do like the mean look does look alot better with the twin headlights but if your gonna keep them on you have to go all clear with the indicators for it to match up with the twin headlights, by the way don't remove the inner lamps it just makes it look a bit odd in my opinion.

I think it looks brilliant mate. I'd keep the ambers but remove the 1 inner light

I know why people slag Venoms because they were EVERYWHERE, but I still think they look great I seriously do..

Looks good mate, but imo would be better with clear indicators, or maybe even smoked ones, can understand u wanting to keep the ambers though.

and i wonder where all the venoms are now, they were everywhere once, all weighed in by now??
