hi all,

im after a little bit of styling opinion.
ive always liked the idea of having yellow headlight lenses.

first off, can anyone who has them comment on how they effect the headlights?

and secondly, whats everyones opinon of the look on my car, i know its my car so i can do what i want but im just looking for some opinons.

[crazycoleman118]

to be honest i think your car looks great! where abouts did you get the yellow headlight lenses, maybe a tow hook might look quite good on the front aswell?

[HARBER07]

Absolutely loving it with the yellow covers.

[daddycool]

Definately without doubt! They look awesome.

[tadleysimon]

thanks for the kind comments, i havent got any yellow covers yet, i just photoshopped it to see what it looked like. i think there quite hard to get but im pretty good and finding rare stuff,

and ive been thinking for gettin a towing eye but i cant decide what one to get...
the standard ones look a bit, well standard and the massive race ones look daft.

TRS do a tow strap? i'll see if i can find the link if you want, i think they look quite good

here's the link, they just bolt in, so as i think the origional ones have a thread on them so if you find a bolt, bolt it in, and poke it through

Looks spot on!

[Midas Mk1]

I did searches on :

Lucas Headlight Conveter
Lucas Beam Converters
Lucas Yellow Headlamp
Lucas Headlamp Covers

These are what seller usually describe them as, and are your best bet on finding a set
