so i opened up my headlights and cleaned em inside out..opening them was a bitch! fingers were already fked from trying to pull the emv out :-( anyway the results pretty good imo, looks like new..also the tutorial in common fixes about putting in the indicators lamps which are silvercoated. they DONT fit right on..well didnt for me anyway. had to smash the thing and custom fit it using cardboard and plastic..anyway ive replaced my low and high beam with narva's and the parking lights with those too..indicator lamps are the silvertype, from narva as well

I think you bought the wrong bulbs, mine fitted no problem.

I agree with Lawrence, there should be no problem with the blinker globes, whether clear, silver or amber, as long as right type (pin offset). I've done one of my lights (it was leaking anyway) and the silver globes look far better than the orange condom. Mind you it doesn't take long for the polycarbonate cover to go yellow again, which is why I haven't bothered with the other light. As Ali suggests, it's a horrible job.

Well done Ali, looks great:-)
