Agree with the above, I would avoid it at all costs! The shape of the headlight just dont lend itself having twin lights.

My old S2 quads. Specially made to keep indicator as I don't like Morrettes with indicators built into bumpers/ etc.
Pics don't really do them justice as the surround looks like a cover, but doesn't in 'real life'. Proper Cibie dual light units like the morrette versions, but slightly smaller to fit into OE size. had to take off the old spotlights tho as it looked too much on thefront. The quads on full beam are very bright anyway.

I bought a set of morettes for my S2 purely to increase underbonnet airflow by removing the outer 2 lights. Unfortunatly because my front pannel is a hybrid they wont fit, if your interested in a set of morette quads PM me.

You should see the paint work on it, Pictures dont show it off atall, Candy red with, ferrari rossa glitter, looks like a right pimps car, I prefer them standard though.
