Are they less than 5mm thick?
Been looking at loads and they all seem to be thicker than that and have less than a the minimum radius.

White covers don't look right on the rear of a car no matter what trendsetters say. Red lights, orange indicators, nuff said.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Considering that you didn't choose the colour (if I remember right?) the colour scheme is spot on!

Looks superb!

TimC Thankyou squire, you have good taste!!

mkblade They stick out (on the inside of arch) 52mm. I have not tried to fit my wheel but it looks fine for clearance. Your rear wing may be fitted different to mine also but these lights have been on many cars so should be fine.
