Speed 6 Headlight conversion

[clarenceboddiger]

I've seen a picture of this converion on a Chim currently advertised on ebay, has anyone done anything similar on a V8 s bonnet, just wondering what it would look like.

I've been toying with this idea for years. I can't possibly afford it but I'd love to have it done. I think it would look awesome.

Personally not a great idea, too modern a look on a classic shaped car IMHO

Have to agree with this - I doubt it would look right

Dont do it, it even looks shit on a griff. Expensive too.

not really, it really would spoil the classic looks of the car.

I think the S6 conversion looks good on some cerbs and chims though.

i'm with you on this, older Tivs like S's and Griff's are best left the way they left the factory IMO and i'm not terribly fond of the way most conversions look on Chims either. some aren't so bad on Cerb's though IMO and the later ones left the factory with blended lights as standard IIRC.
any headlamp conversion on an S wouldn't do it any favours at all IMO!
