    Thanks again for the help everyone. Another little modification I have made now. Still need to get the wiring and the switch hooked up to the fogs though

    Thanks James, yeah I reckon they are the same ones. These are just a set of 50 pound cheapies from Ebay, although they look quite good and were well sealed. I am currently on the hunt for an OEM wiring harness for the foglights, just trying to find some, that seems to be the hardest thing of the entire process.

    I think I'll need to ask your advice too on how to smoke up the indicators

    Do what Lorenz didn't do - prep the glass first!

    Unfortunately his tint came right off the glass...you need to give it a light wet-sand first (sandpaper soaked in water - bout 1000-2000 grit) for the tint to stick onto something

    Hey guys I've got another problem (I can hear you all saying AGAIN!?! by the way lol)

    Whenever I have passengers in the car the rear suspension bottoms out badly. Stupid question but does anyone know how much a set of rear suspension would cost either new or secondhand. Not looking for anything super special or low at the moment as I am quite low on cash

    You can buy mine when I upgrade hehe nah not sure if I'll keep it or not...

    Are your rear springs just saggy? Sounds like you could do with some coils mate....

    Two new rear dampers would have to be in the region of $300 compared to $700 for a full set of coils...
