I think it's been said before that you can't get them outside a scrappy. Could very well be wrong though, but I'd say you'd be better off at a scrappy anyway.

hes talking about the ones that actually bolt onto the wings :)
To fit em you need to drill an extra hole in the wing, unless you're lucky and it has the 90 spec wings with the extra hole.  Since its a H reg it probably will :)

Also if you want fogs you'll have to remove the lower valance & grille.
