Let me know if you would like photos - I would sell for 80 GBP plus postage.

It's true, they don't fit over top off the glass, but with "TEC7" it can fit. Title: Re: looking for 356-style headlamp grilles Post by: PIMPPRIDE on February 04, 2009, 23:09:02 pm (http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/200795.jpg)
thats our listing and I have installed them over the glass on cars myself, as others have also, it takes a little work, but doesn't anything thats worth doing? Anthony / ISP WEST |
