I was absolutely sick of this:


I bought a new complete set of D21 indicators for £12+postage on the off chance they would fit - they looked about the same on the photos in a recent thread as the TerranoII/Maverick lenses.
They arrived and are too wide and deep, but the height is almost perfect. Frustration lead to me getting the powerfile out and grinding away all that was meant to be behind the old lenses and this is the end result:


I am really pleased with the result - although the work involved would push me towards buying the Terrano lenses instead.

Hi, Thanks.
I wanted clear indicators as I thought they would look better with the headlights and front fogs.

Hi Mate

I like them a lot.. its good that they are higher that the other conversions. Any chance of a close up picture..? do they cover the bump strip..?

Cheers

Too wide and deep ? bit confused, did this mean cutting away any visible body work or just behind the lamp unit too allow for depth ?
More pictures and measurements if poss. please !

They look great, some of those clear headlamps would really give it a modern retro look (If you see what I mean!).

Interesting bonnet badge too - thats a badge from a much later car - I like it what does anyone else think?

I have the clear lamps on order already smile
More photos for those who have requested them below:



I had to cut away the area which you would normally screw into ie the bit that is not on show.
