    Jeez I duck out for a bit and you completely redo the place. Looks great. Those Merc wheels are a crack up.

    Sorry bro, my mobile has been broken for a week and a bit now, also the lack of internet at home has been hard to stay in contact with the world

    So without front indicators it was a little difficult manuvering through traffic, haha, so I planned on making my parker bulbs the new inicators but the little wedges are not anywhere near bright enough for anything other than ****ty parkers; So here's my solution.....


    so I started with this.....





    bought some 40mm pvc pipe and cut up a pair of DEPO front indicators for the bulb holder





    turned into this........ I stuck some reflective insulation tape on the inside to help with the light output (probably did nothing)









    stuck them onto the housing with jb weld





    and painted





    I've used the parker wires through the og headlight wire harness to keep it all oem so i'm running no parkers at the moment but I have alternate ideas there....

    and they work as they should with no dodgey/out-of-place looking indicators, wickedness

    This is outrageously cool.

    Top effort.

    I assume those lights came with clear lenses? I like the defused ones!
    car is looking awesome, although some new wheels will finish it imo

    Love it! I was thinking you could've left the parkers and put the indicators underneath where mk4 run fog lights. Perhaps that's where you're relocating parkers too?

    Yeh the parkers are in the top little light position though I don't like them, I'll be wiring up a drl arrangement soon once I figure it out
