This is how I did it.
You take the headlight out of the car.
You get some long needle nose pliers and start snapping off the orange indicator lens.
(I used the dremel on the first one and it made more mess and wasn’t as easy)
Once you’ve snapped off and removed all the orange bits you get some of those Auto globes that appear clear/silver but flash orange.
I think these had a different lug on the side of the base of the globe, but because the globe holder is plastic you can push them in anyway.
Sorry I can’t find the exact Philips Indicator Bulb type because their website is b0rked.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Looks good, that's how i'd want to do my intercooler in the NB. Its hard to see from the pic, but have you cut some sheeting to go around the pipes and force more air through the radiator?
Going to box off that filter from the radient heat off the turbo?
