Hey all

Has anyone got any pics or links to slightly modded rear ends (the boot area etc). I've seen some where the light pods have been removed and replaced by simple domed pods. Anyone done this? Or anything a bit "different".

Thanks
Andy.

I did have a MK1 Clio brake light in the boot lid too, but I've changed boot lids now.

That's all I've got on the laptop at the mo. I did it myself so not that difficult, the hardest part is geting the curves right in the panel that fills the old holes. After that, just use a hole saw and weld in short sections of tube. The indicators are the clear lenses at the top. Fog and reverse lights will be on brackets under the bumper with the reflectors next to them. Car Builder Solutions have all sorts of rear combi lights you can use: http://www.cbsonline...Lighting,b.html
