A decent set of bulbs in some crystals seemed to improve the illumination by a noticeable degree on mine.

I've a number of spare grilles actually and never really thought bout selling them as they are fairly cheap to get hold of at the shows. Don't have any pics, but I've got a campaign, not a cab, so the whole look of the car is different to yours, me having a roof and you not n all that!!

I know I've got a badgeless and a badged grille. Think the Badged is a twin and the badgeless a single
Have to have a look on Friday
