Lightbulb Rear lights

QUOTE=micky1mo;53601]Looking good
I'v been thinking of rear lights for my Pilot and have been looing at what I believe is Austin 1800 rear lights. [/QUOTE]

Micky,

Austin 1800 horizontal or vertical?

I think horizontal rear lights gives the rear of a car a sportier look.
They seem to give a low and wide look.

The alternative vertical lights seem to made the rear look tall and thin.
I see lots on modern estste and high roof cars.

So my preference is always for horizontal.
However the G46 does not allow it as it has curved rear haunches like the cobra.
So we end up with No1 twin lights, your Jag clusters and my sunbeam units all vertical.
Chairman has remodelled his rear end to get the horizontal look.

I wonder what Andrew Hush, and Nike have in mind

The Pilot rear seems a little flatter giving you more options.

Have you taken bluewhale out for a spin yet?


The temp has plumitted again here in my car port, so my planned weekend with the fibreglass and resin has been cancelled.
Lets hope the new lighter nights will emable some progress when I get home from work.

Cheers

HM
