What are on the car at the moment? What type of bulbs? and what is the diamater of the reapeater holes that are already there?
Are you changing them? If so everything will be dependant on what you are changing to, and not what anyone else has

Well I am afraid that the only way anyone will be able to advise of the diamater of the side repeater holes is by removing one and measuring it... And bearing in mind that these were done aftermarket over here, I can only assume that the hole size is not neccessarily standard on all cars... Best bet is to remove one or both of yours and measure the holes. There are small clips holding them in at the back (Inside the hood). Aftermarket clear side markers for a Ford Fiesta are a pretty good match for the Klearz, but you will need the bulb holders to fit them as well which will require a bit of cutting & re-wiring. You'll need to source those from Ford or cut them off a crashed car at a local scrap yard.

the hood ones are stock uk as supplied in 97 ,not sure of size holes as they are still on the car.
i am looking to change these for the smallest i can find of similar appearance to the klearz front markers which i have not fitted as yet.

Have to agree with Dave on this one, pop the hood and take a look at what you have. That's what i did, then went down to halfords and brought the indicators that looked like they would fit.
