I really don't think it will fit. And if it does it won't look right. But al the power to you to try.

My friend, Kindly see post 13 onwards and you will see that it fits and my honest thoughts on it!
It's something I wanted to find out and I did.
On to something else, like mirrors, headlight under trim, rear reflectors and a rear diffuser to complement the existing 4.8is one.

You added a sidelight in the fog lights position.
The photo is misleading, since it's white light and not red. Great mod, I also did that back in 2005.

I've not done nothing to the colour think that's just how the pictures turned out , all I did really was swap the single filament holder for a twin filament then wired the sidelight via a relay.
