Post subject:  Twin headlights
Has anyone put twin headlights (2 on each side) on a clubman? I'm interested in doing this and have a spare HX holden ute but the alloy souround is about 12mm shorter in hight than the mini grill. Also the HX is totaly square where the cluby is curved at the headlight ends :? My best option would be to cut the HX steel surounds off and graft them onto the mini, thats too much work.
So dose anyone know of a sutitable doner car that could work eaiser?
I've heard of it being done with BMW light assemblies :? .

You could cut and shut the holden front end.

i've got some driving lamps in the grille like an LS or SS
if you did twin headlamps, i'd go with some smaller ones, cos paired full size ones take up most of the grille and look silly.

Remember seeing one in a mini mag i think or on another forum with Mk4 Golf headlights (OK, not really twin headlights but along the same lines).

It was a beautiful job but ugly as sin.

You've got to admire the talent, ability and willingness to give things a go though, even if it's not to your own taste!

I think done right, twin headlights could look pretty cool. I always wanted to cover the front of mine in as many massive Cibie Super Oscars as would fit - stadium floodlight stylee.

??? Has it been photoshopped or is it a lot wider than a standard mini ? There shouldn't be that much room either side of the rocker cover .
