iam planning on upgrading mine to a slightly bigger size. also these are wired in with a seprate loom so i can have a switch on the dash, ( nice and oem) when i put my dipped beam on, i can switch the spots on instead of going for the full beam.

Good idea, on my land rover i have my spots wired up with a switch but it only turns them off when my full beam is on.

Im going to buy my insurance for this tomorrow. Cant wait!
I may also be buying the supers back... He's taken the tyres off so they're a bit more affordable, after ive my tax and insurance paid im in full save mode for them. They can sit in my garage til i can afford tyres, i just want them in my possession lol.

It was actually the headlight had popped out of its lower mount but its sorted now. see pic below.
The wing and bonnet line up badly because it was probably put back together in a hurry after the car was resprayed. It will be a saturday afternoon job some day im bored,

Cheers lads! I've been holding off on pictures because it looks standard at the minute and its not much to look at! There'll be a good few pictures up when I get a few tyres gathered up for them. They are soo sexy! 8 inch wide and a nice bit of dish.

Cheers Conor! I had thought about the bbs reps because the man was asking too much for the supers at the time. Still see the od set on Gumtree and i Still might lift a set if I see a bargain. Good thing about wheels is its hard to lose money on them lol. I think they would look well.
Anyway I've tyres going on the superlights tomorrow and I've a few mates coming round on Saturday to help me lower it. All being well ill stick a few pics of it up on Sunday!

Haha, worst is when youre working on it and lean on the top of a wing with a big oily hand
Thanks again everyone. Its ridiculous the amount of ones looking to buy it, went to a meet on sunday and had boys trying to buy it, then ones on j44 looking it. I'm going to hold onto it and use it for what it was bought for. An easy run diesel that still gets looks!
