You can.

Brickworx Racing (as with most Mini shops) can order the 'filler panel' that is required.
Note that welding, and therefore painting, will be needed to do this.

These are the 'Cooper' type lenses.
As fitted to all Aussie pre-71 minis.
They changed when the Leyland minis were introduced to our market.

I think you are talking about rover lenses and clubman lenses.

Not morris and clubman.
Rover and clubman do look very much alike.

If so, Rover tail lights DO fit directly into Leyland mini tail light holes.

We have a set to go, for Leyland - call Steve on 08 8297 9494 and ask. :wink:
