Default Aftermarket clear lense (EB) fitment

Bought some off ebay last week, seemed to be ok, but when i fitted them and put them back in, they seem to be a little hard to realign, are they all like this or are they a little out of shape.

PS... will they also add the 10rwkw they promised

Mine fit exacly like the originals do. But it should line up since you have to bolt it into the headlamp.

Looks the biz, mate.

Have you done the clear repeaters on the guards yet? I think AU ones fit upside down, or (shock! horror!) VT commodore ones clip straight in...

Thanks mate - I'm a fan of her, especially for the price. Will be good to see how the little Windsor runs.

She starts and runs, looks cool in an E-mutant kinda way, gets 14ishL/100k's...

Performance of this one doesn;t worry me - I've got my fast car...
