New front side lights for older cars

Lucas make a really simple lamp fitting,its quite basic and the rubber grommet it fits inside can probably fit in the same hole as the original fitting.Some drilling works will be required?


Lucas parts are now made under licence.


The original lamp holder has been drilled out,leaving a lip the suit the rubber grommet that comes with the lamp holder.


A simple cure which means we can change the bulb without removal of the front lens cover


The clear lens cover will be fitted later


The red wire is the original feed,the car being a negative earth 12 volt system used the body to supply the return,with the new lamp holder it is required that we fit a black wire to ground,on this car its close to the wiper motor and and easy addition.
