Right been to pick up and exchange lights with vtr_2007 (still dont know your name!!) Bit of a mission, Jay came along for the road trip and to laugh at my petrol consumption! Anyways after a few scary moments, here she is with the morettes on . . . .

This light needs new bit on the back...

They need general tidying up and a bit of messing around with. Will be having a go at them on Sunday with Willsy and Jay_biss.
Going to put wheels on now to see if they are ok! Oh and attach the morettes safely and wire the sidelights up!

Love the morettes mate, look like they have seen better days though, nothing a little TLC wouldnt fix.

Yeh they do need quite a bit of TLC but I aint too fussed, matt said he will help me with the fibreglassing and what not on Sunday so should be looking better then.
Question is . . . Do i keep them posi blue or go anthracite as I want to??

Think I am kissing the euro theme goodbye. I would love to do it but its not very pratical and I use the saxo everyday! Tempted to go rally slag! Then again might just stick with ideas I want and see how they turn out!

Shibby! I told you Morettes were the future  They look much better. Bit of TLC over the weekend and we'll have them looking as good as new. Got our work cut out, itll be the biggest day of Sax loving for a while, we've all got bits to do!!!
Plenty of update pics to come

Looks like you need a new inner light, as all the reflector has rusted. They look mint on a mk1 matey. New rims sound nice

Impressive stuff - The boot change really makes me wana do mine too, as I gota a spoiler that no longer really fits in with the style Im heading down.
Quads look spot on mate, Really needs a change in wheel now.
Your right about euro not being any good for an everyday drive and it works out really expensive to have stuff cleaned and decluttered
Love the look of the car so far - cant wait to see the new wheels

Right wheels have just been put on to test they all go in a straight line, lol! Not the finished article at all but just what it looks like so far, oh and my sidelights doesnt work, need the unit replaced so thought I would go for a bit of a mean look while I get a replacement. . . .
While fitting .

On. Sitting a bit high but i am sorting suspension out soon.

Lights with mean streak! Had an idea with these, might need yet another photoshop!

Colour I have picked for morettes to be sprayed in. . . crap picture but some bloke in halfrauds was giving me dodgy looks!
