Really like the look of round lamps,who has done this,and what lamps did you use ?
Is it just a case of bolting the housings in place,and connecting them up ?

Does anyone know if the MK1 grill will fit the MK2?

The MK1 Grille will fit but it does require slight modifications along the top of the grille (chooping down) I had a mk1 grille fitted to my Scala with E30 BMW lights, here's how it looked
