Hi Ian…I was looking for some for mine…The price of the plastic ones makes me think i might be better off buying chrome…Cheers…Ziga

Hi Mark,
I have already tried a chrome one off of Nicola's mini but it is not possible to tighten the screw up as the headlight pod body gets in the way
Cheers anyway mate

On the S Series cars there is a little "home made" L bracket to secure the bezel, would this work?

Hi Mate…Don't think they will fit with the little ear fixings on..The ones on there already look exactly like the plastic porsche ones with the screw hole actually in the bezel…Theres not much room for much else…..Shame as they look much better…Ziga

I think the black ones are actually GRP... seem to recall inspecting mine and seeing the cloth weave on the inside. Probably done because the Wedge isn't really a chromey car.

You could buy the mini chrome ones and spray them black. I think, if I remember correctly, there is a way of putting the screw through the mini bezel with the hole, and then twisting the whole thing round into position so as it stays on securely.

If you put the bracket on the inside and also drilled a hole through to get at the screw, then the chrome ones would fit. They would look better than the placcy ones but on the other hand when do you see them - at night and then you're in the driver's seat, so never, then. Well, OK, when you wash the car and remember to put the lights on to do the headlamps.
