In all sincerity its not worth it just remove your grille and cut out the blank plastic parts and no one will know the difference. If I was in your shoes I would just mark out...

Tour through UK

Hello everyone! I am thinking of getting on a tour through UK in Summer 2010, with my 480, if it will survive until next summer... Any nice places I should visit? Nice roads to drive along? I'm only asking it on this forum, as I think there are a lot of UK Forum users. Greets and thanks in advance f...

Would be cool m8. Just to do a basic calculation. Will have to "organise" some fog lights as a second step.

Many thanks for the swift response m8 :D

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Raff, sorry for the off topic!!! LOL seen the pics and read the comment before :lol: One question: I will only need a "new" grille, am I right? No "special" bumper needed? Guess the size of the packet might make it fairly expensive to be sent via postal services? Greets Raff

Looking for a front grille + 2 fog lights

Hey all,

I am looking for a front grille (prepared for fog lights) + 2 fog lights (left and right side). It's not urgent, but I'm thinking about adding fog lights to my 480. Am I right, that the wires/plugs should already be installed?

I'ts fatally that your car is RHD :? I cannot registrate it in my country :cryhard: Are you sure? As I am quite sure, that at least in my country, I could easily register a RHD car (as long as all security relevant parts are ok). The import of the car might be more of a big problem though :wink:

Hey hey, The throttle (especially black electronic box attached to it) might be of interest for me, if it's a pre 91' car. Shouldn't be too hard to remove it.

Btw. It only has central locking using the driver's side lock! If you use the co-driver side lock, it will only lock this side! :wink:
