Speaking of lights, does anyone have any access to a Toyota Hilux - around the 3003 model, as reckon their headlights could be made to fit, as I am sick of having to feed the goldfish in my headlights...so have now been looking at something like this...

But not sure if they are flat fronted or slope up from the bottom and also if they are too curved?
 
Well, got the lights finished this weekend, as I needed to extend the bumper under the lights so they didn't just look like they were 'stuck on' and not meant to be there.

Started by making up some bottom bumper brackets..

then welded them onto the bumper...

A lot better in my opinion :D
 
Then onto some light guards.

Started by bending into the shape I needed...

then welded onto some of the metal I had left over from the bumper...

a few coats of hammerite...

and then fitted up using rivnuts into the bumper....

not sticking out too much and you can see the new under protection...

Not bad for £35.00 for the lights and £5.00 for the steel, oh and a few weekends fabricating them on :rolleyes:
 
The wiring only took a few minutes as i can do that in my sleep....just a relay for the driving lamps and the fog light wiring was already there from the original bumper ;)
 
Just a heads up they will fit a face lift D2 a few guys on another forum have fitted them, so I've ordered a set today
