hmmm. Never heard of that one. They should be a straight fit.

Remember, it is not a UK MOT requirement to have reverse lights!

right..

bought the lights from rogue systems.. cosT was 165 pound for the lights and 50 extra bucks for the centre panel (rev 6)..

the lights were a little tricky to fit on to my rev 1, they looked as if they were out a touch, but thats prolly jus my car!!

the rev 6 centre panel does not work well with the rear lock on the mr2 rev 1...
i cannot use the lock to open the boot (i have to use the leaver) as the lock is set to far back for the key to reach in and turn the lock!!

just a warning to any1 wanting to do this.. thats all..

unless any1 knows away around his??
dont wanna fit a rev 3 barrel and have to use another key tho!!

All in all the clear lights and panel were easy to fit and could be done by anyone with a socket.. they took about 30 minuites to fit and look the fu*king nuts!!


safe..
