Bit of a update. Aftef doin some general housework ie cutting the grass and putting a little fence up i went to the garage to have abit time on this as a was tripping up over stuff so something had to done.

So cracked on putting the wiring in the bulkhead and down the wing both looms.

All clipped up

That was that then tonite i decided to split the standard lights and black the inners

painted obviously i took them outside to paint

Masking removed and lense back on manage to get 2 lights and one indicator done the other indicator lense wouldnt budge

not bad for a hours work tonite

 

[Loffty01]

cracking progress with this mate is it easy to do the lights then fella

 

[Gareth]

Headlights are easy soaked in the sink red hot water 5 to ten minutes prise apart easy.
Indicators seem to be tuff especially a depo one
