Morrettes will help you see better surely?

[astra_barry]

well i like the look of them being standard. want to clean up the lines of the car.

[LEE69]

fair enough

[duneii]

do the glasses come off easily? What about the indicators?

[Kieran]

Headlight glass is relatively easy to take off with a heat gun (after removing the small metal clips of course). Indicators are a bit harder. Some of the lenses are near enough impossible to remove without breaking. Others that have done quite a few miles come apart in your hand lol.

can you do this on the mk3 cav's?

[Kieran]

You can yeah, same methods of dismantling apply lol.

[duneii]

what you stick them back on with, instant gasket??

[Murray]

what you stick them back on with, instant gasket??

Clear silcone iirc.

Also drop the indicators into hot water, helps when removing the lens.

[LEE69]

I used black instant gasket from Halfords.

Cavs just fall apart remove the clips and the lens falls off.
