That looks spot on

I would consider one IF there was the possibility to -
a) get it smoked like my veccy front light
b) change the bulb in it to a xeon white one like my front interior light

Think it can be done?

Hmm, my mate tinted his rear lights so i might be able to bodge it with some spray

Thats also good if the bulb can be changed, i may consider this cheap nifty little mod when i whack the head liner out to retrim it

Yeah I would love a LET, but £3500 for the conversion is money I don't have sadly.

I'm paying 380 Fully comp on the sport at the mo and it's nippy(ish) so will stick with that...........for now.

The guy I bought my 1.6 sport from said there was an 18 year old interested. Test drove it left a deposit then got a quote for it. £2000

He then backed out of the sale and lost his deposit

I'm sure you're supposed to get the quote first then test drive and leave a deposit but hey ho.
