Preyy easy and straight forward install.. One of the bolts on the left hand headlights was cross threaded so was a bit of a prick getting the little **** out but we got there... Got the new bonnet struts installed as well. ezpz lemon squeezy.


For some reason though This side just wont clip in... giving me the shits...

Mine were the same when i bought my car with them already on. The genuine ones fit better, they're not perfect though. Nevertheless, looks good!

Hahahahaha

That side bit, i have same issue.
ALOT commodore users have it, once bumper comes off thats it, hardly goes back on.
And reason why i laughed is i had to redo mine today.

Dremel tool a slit in the section under the headlight so can hook something through it near original clip thats gone soft (you wont see the below when looking at car as tucks under headlight but then again my car is black like the cable tie itself)

I use a thick cable tie and loop it through and then with some thin twine rope stuff, loop that through the cable tie and attach to the battery mount bar that goes across the top of the battery

I can easily take it off if removing bumper etc by undoing the battery mounting bolt and/or make adjustments

My car is black so can easily get away with it

There is also anothe rmethod to use and thats again using cable tie to the quarter on the inner side somewhat

But can be done

@uniacidz i actually popped it back in quite a bit maybe a 2mm gap i unscrewed all the screws on the bumper then jsut gave it a wack then slowly screwed it all back in... I still want to cable tie it though.. its just working out best spot... Thanks for suggestions though.

On another note... Now that i have some projector lenses....

Nein. Just grab some phillips ultra white. Those projectors are known to be shite.

Should check this guy out for something custom: https://www.facebook.com/LoudzCreations/?fref=ts
