What spots do you have? If they're normal size ones normally used on the front of Minis it should be fine, as that's what the grille's designed to take.

Hmmm good timing, I've been fitting my spotlight grille today :D

Mine has bog standard spot lamps in it, not genuine Rover, but some aftermarket types. Cheapo's basically. They fit perfectly in the grille and I'd imagine most types would becasue there is a bit of adjustment there.

The lamps don't come anywhere near the engine, they don't even protude past the front panel to be honest, lots of space behind.

ps- think my spots are wipac too.... I'll get a pic tommorw when it gets light.
