    get them from Vauxhall - only 2 quid each.

    cut the clips off and stick them on with double sided tape.

    easy.

    get the bulb holders 2 from vaux (2 quid also) they make the job a million times tidyer, then some small crimps (red)

    remove the pants orange nasty thingys by squeezin 2 clip in the inside of the wing, top and bottom of bulb holder, (ull need small hands) and lever with a flat blade screw driver on the front of the wing, put masking tape on the wing 2 protect the paint from the screw driver.

    cut the cables close 2 the holder, more cable the better, then crimp the ends (2person job 1 holds the cable while the other crimps its that or have 3 hands lol) and remember them cables r live so dont touch them 2gether or the bodywork. if u do = popped fuse

    then attach crimps 2 the mk4 bulb holder. i had 2 use some long nose pilers. and make sure connection is tight, give it a light tug!

    remove bulbs from the nova bulb holders, lightly with a pair of piles worked 4 me

    pop bulb in and test

    cut clips off the back of the lens (leaving the round peg)

    attach lens 2 holder

    u may have 2 attach tape 2 the back but i didnt need 2

    poke assy through hole in wing

    test again

    job done
