I am an Activaist-v6 and a 2.1Estateerr

Unless the headlights have been changed, they'll still be LHD dip patterns ? Ideally they should be changed for RHD types...

One would presume it wouldn't have got an MOT without the correct headlights..

Yep changed with a RHD car.....these came off a 1998 car so I had presumed they were the later type.

What's the coating on the rear wheel arch inners and subframe?

I might have been misled by artifacts in the .jpg. The early lenses have a rectangular pattern to the fluting, the later ones, more of a diamond pattern. I have seen later cars with early lenses fitted as replacements. The early lenses illuminate the footpath nicely, but not so much the road ahead.

I will take a couple of pics tomorrow so you can see better if I may.....

Just cleaned them with a brush (wheels off) and sprayed a little "detailer" spray. I have resprayed stone chip and clear underbody wax (Dinatrol) last year into the subframe ect so the surface cleans up well.

I will not be driving the car again until the morning of the show.

Does this help ?

I would say it looks like new, but I do not want to get sworn at, so I will say it looks like how new SHOULD have been!

[Fake Concern]

Looks fantastic!

The RH lens (at the left of the photo) still looks like an early one to me. Can you see, looking at the actual car, that the pattern over the dip lights is the same on both sides?

[Stickyfinger]

I must admit I thought they were the same....I will check the lamps on the donor car this morning

[Stickyfinger]

This is what I have available to me.....

Those are all late lenses except for the top left, which is an early one. I am not sure whether the early reflectors are different, I have fitted a late lens to an early reflector and the pattern seemed OK.
