I do a lot of night driving and my standard Mini headlamps are not really that great for night driving. I don’t really want a set of 4 extra lights mounted on the front but I remember seeing grills with 2 headlamp recesses in them.

Does anyone have some of these on their car and did you have any problem fitting the lamps, or any problems with heat from the engine? Did you have to move anything such as the horn to fit the light units into the grill? Can the grill screws take the weight of the lights ok?

Thanks in advance.

i think mini spares do the grills with the spot light holes

and bulbs run hot so a dought the engine heat would be a problem
