I know!! I know!!...are you making the rear fog/reverse light unit symmetrical????I'm sorting out a design goof in this EVO first. Very few grande punto owners did this too

Cool! be interesting to pics once you've fitted them!Yeah correct

I've still got to get round to fitting my armrest & smoked side repeaters…. Not exactly easy in this weather!!
Just not so easy when it’s caked in solid ice!The side repeaters are easy to change, you have to take it off to change the bulb anyway
im assuming it is a clear plastic with a red bulb fitted for the fog?
Yeah that's it exactly. In Europe because the drive on the opposite side of the road they have to have their rear fog light and reverse light the other way round. Which means we can order the european reverse lamp unit and fit it where our fog light unit is or order their fog light and remove our reverse light unit. However this means you end up with a red reverse light and that's not ideal because I use the light from my reverse light on the drive and to let others know you going backwards. It is totally legal to do both as we don't require a reverse light by law, just depends wether you want two White lamps at the bottom or two red!
Finally managed to get my smoked side repeaters fitted today … I think it adds a nice touch, gives it a sportier look I think!The side repeaters are easy to change, you have to take it off to change the bulb anyway

Ah excellent. You know when you'll be receiving the unit? I want to see pics!! This is something i would like to do. I did hear on 350Z-UK that the law may get tighter on rear fogs as at the minute a red bulb is fine but apparently there is talk that it may soon be deemed not bright enough...
only talk though, on my corsa i had both fogs/reflectors tinted and no police cared in the slightest!
Cheers again
Got mine off eBay, just do a search and im sure you'll find them... they do have to come from Germany though!Could you send a link to where you got thsee please.
Thanks
Well it’s more solid ice than snow now! I would definitely recommend changing the bulbs, most Evo owners tend to change them now… Gives better performance & looks better too!Checked out your pics and my first reaction was, god, you've still got snow there?
Anyway, back to the reason for checking out the pics! Very nice. After reading your signature I'm increasingly tempted to change the main beam bulbs etc when my Evo GP finally gets dragged out of the damned docks at Bristol where it's been sat since 11 December. My Eleganza was sat there for over 3 weeks back in May when that came through. :bang:
I did the headlights (Osram Nightbreakers Plus) the sidelights (Mtec Super White, which are about the best I could get after trying Philips & Osram ones) & the DRL’s (Mtec Super White). I got all the bulbs off eBay, I’ve not changed the fogs yet although “MrBoney” has so he could tell you if they are difficult to fit or not.Did you get the bulbs off eBay? If you could point me in the right direction, that would be great, thanks. Did you do the bulbs in the front fogs too or is that a pain in the left nut?
