I never found the Griffith rear lights spot on and like them as much as the rest of the design.
Thinking of swapping them for these (see 2nd pic) (sorry fo the bad photoshop but you'll get the idea)
Does it look better ?

Thanks Ronald

@andy43:
Those were the ones i wanted, as they look great on a black griff, but they can't be sourced anymore.

That is an idiot price.
You can source these lights in uk for about 60 GBP an easily wrap them dark yourself.

Nevertheless, decided to go for a swap. Don't think I'll wrap them dark because the headlights are also behind clear glass and keeping appearance in harmony.
Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. The Cavalier lights will be stocked when I might want to go back original.
I'll keep you posted.

Regards Ronald.

Before my decision I had some other ideas which IMHO suit the Griff better than standard :

Mito lights



Or this (technically impossible as you can't get all the different lights in.

What I really should have done (as my car had a front end respray) is hide the front indicators. There must be a tiny modern led solution to fit just near the lower main beams out of sight.
