Anyone know what the price is of the headlight conversion to the 3 spots. Sprayed painted and installed by the monkeys.

I cant complain, cause the monkeys did a good job on the lights......lol

If you ask me the Twin Headlight conversion looks a lot more effective than the mesh grill. I just wish I could find someone here in Australia to get it done.

I really am not too much of a fan of the mesh grill. I think it cheapens the look of the car myself.

kirk,

mesh grille is a matter of personal taste. everyone i showed my CC to loved the grille and thought it made a big difference - were a bit surprised at the cost for a piece of wire mind you

the grille is getting fitted to my replacement CC along with the wheel arch extensions as with the previous car

Derek are you having the same colour again - I cant remember.

If so make sure they paint the extensions again as my new car is definately a darker blue than the first one (I like the darker colour better)

everything is the exact same rob, silver with black/red leather.

so far i have added the cd auto changer which they are to fit.

p.s. i hope the car to be right, they are going to fully check and test it before i get it - they have had enough trouble from me

M275, thanks for the light pics, there grrreat! Reminds me a little of that TVR I think the Tuscan (tho that's where any comparison ends but for the famous TVR leaks of course - "what a TVR convertable that doesn't leak? can't be a TVR then").

Anyone know if Peugeot undertake the three spots light work at any local dealership?

Robbie,

I purchased the car from Charters in Alton. Not sure how far that is from you. Good service though (much better than Farlington (perrys))

I presume that any dealer can fit/paint them but as to reputable ones - no idea...

The quad light conversion is in the accessories brouchre, for 449 not painted and 499 painted, so i guess all dealers should be able to do them for you. Though getting them from Morrette should be cheaper.

Thanks all for that, may well be another for the list at the six month service.
