yeh no problems matt.

ok well ive completed one, 2nd one i went away for the weekend so i didnt have time to finish it.

im not sure for facelift but with pre face lift the factory plug that has a fog light,parker,indicator was very handy.

so i cut off the parker wiring about half way, so i had enough wire on the end of the parker to easily wire it back in later.

so once i cute the wire i just soldered some long wire to the previously cute wires on the factory plug, just make sure its long enough to reach to the head light even be generous haha. then just wire and solder in the parker.

as to the head light not much area to really drill, i drilled under the high beam i think, if your looking at it, its the light on the inside, i have a picture below.
and for the bulb holder, i just cut the bulb holder out of the foglight and siliconed it in.

UPDATE

i finished off the lights and fitted the new bumper, the colouring is slightly off though!


also serviced it, changed gearbox oil and engine oil/filter.

car will be going to the panel beater shortly, to get skirts put on, with some modding to them. will also get the bumpers colour fixed!
will look like they a apart of the car.
