I'm a Hater for those who do not know how to drive a low car :/ even though the MX isnt as low as my old falcon.

Re: Gareth's Red Na6
I got my lights yesterday in the mail. They look pretty nice & are pretty small/stock looking

I also bent & re shaped the plate bracket back into stock form. As the previous owner liked it reducing the radiator flow :/

& here they are fitted

Appear to light up the road fairly well.
Much better than the fog lights in the NB8B and likely more useful.
