Cool Finally got some 2 wheel drive rear lights!

It took me nearly 4 months to get these



Much better



I'll fit the other one later. The passenger one has a small crack but I doubt it'll show, if I find another one I'll change it.

I'm getting rid of the dark ones I've gone back to ambers on the front and I needed the rears to match.

First thing I did too, convert back to 2wd lights on me mercury grey 2wd, look so muc better and much brighter.
I also did a brake light mod where the FOGS come on with the BRAKE lights, MOT passable and LEGAL too, as fogs still work independantly on thier own, cost 40P!!.

Typical 2WD Sapphire Cossie inferiority syndrome. I've rarely seen a case so bad.
