I'm sure this has been covered before, I have searched so shoot me down if you like.
Has anyone converted an SE's lights to the regular Cavalier lights? Idea on cost? would it affect the value?
I'm in the market for a very nice Griff and a couple of SE's look very nice but I cannot love those rear lights, the dash I might be able to live with but the lights, no.
I'm also (and my wife) fussy on the colour combo as well, not helpful I know.

Thanks, Appreciate the replies. I know it's a somewhat unreasonable view.

Well I've bought an SE, I went to see one yesterday and she was perfect, immaculate, and the colour combination looked fantastic in the sun.
I have to say the rear lights looked much better in the flesh and SWMBO actually likes them so I won't be doing anything with them which is probably better for the car as well!

Looking forward to getting her home and out for a decent run when covid rules allow!

Looks a lovely car. Just being nosey really but what's the story behind it not having the Cerbera seats in?
I don't know but as the car was owned by someone at Fernhurst I assume they swapped them as soon as delivered. I don't have the car yet so haven't poured over the history file. Presumably personal preference.
The restoration as you can see in the Fernies pictures is quite something, it looks brand new.
It will be good to get back into a Griff, I sold my last one in 2011 and have owned a Cerb for the past 10 years which has now gone to a new home.
