1) Remove front grill, unplugging your inner spotlights at the same time.
2) Fit new grill.
3) Enjoy.

You didnt need to buy headlights mate.

Just remove the grill and unplug the spots just like Dan said.

I have a single light grill for sale and you are only in Leicester lol

Driving lights are attached to the car matey.

I got your pm, Its some aftermarket thing made of fibreglass I think, or something similar with a plastic surround. I think I have a pic of it on my car. I'll try and get one up for you

Wrap the spot light plugs with electrical tape as best you can.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
