I do like the round lights but think the egi lights are cool too.
What do you guys think?!:D

:rollin
Chose the round ones, they look more at home on the classic FC :) or if you want to modenise them do what pete did and put LEDs in the round sort :)
yeah i do think the round lights look a bit more modern and do look sweet but i dont like the reflective strip at the bottom!
quite like the chunkyness of the others.
Think im going to have to offer them up to see how they look!!:rollin:Hammer
put one on each side :p
love the rounds but also quite like old style blocks too.
Would we get away with taking the diffusers out of the S5 TII lights like they do in the states? It gives the rear lights a whole different look.
got any pics? are the diffusers in the round type lights?

Here you go.
Def go for the round ones the square ones age the car way too much, i have the ones that Pete did the look smart as!

These look best i think although the led\'s look good too but far too much work for me

Think i might give it a shot :)

if only it was that easy, oven needed for this job, it can go wrong sooo easy:Grrr
I have the S5 round. I like the look a lot since installing LED\'s in the brake/tail lights.
Not sure on the "Modernized" look.

Instead of melting them with an oven, just use the exhaust:

Definately the round ones, they look even better lit up

Round ones are sweet. If you can get the jap spec ones, they\'re even better. Also look good with all the honeycomb stuff taken out
redgti has just picked up his Bride passenger seat off me, he has the square sort, on his car it does look rather cool as the shiny black surrounds on the squarer sort matched with the shiny black of the car.
I think it works well with darker coloured cars, but only with the EGIs due to the black bump strips else you would have black surrounds on the lights and then no black trim on the turbo II.
i have to disagre, i recon the round lights look good with the trim

The pre-89 ones do look ok on a white car with black trim but the round type do give a more up to date look. I modded several sets with the diffuser taken out but might be best to get LED bulbs as they are brighter. With the diffuser taken out it does not give a good bright glow and especially during the day. The other set on my Fc are actually trailer LED\'s from the USA, cost was still about £50 and I put LED bulbs and resistors in for the indicators.
Thanks chaps, decided on the round ones but im still thinking i dare\'nt put them in the oven!!
Think i better concentrate on actually getting the car back on the road, big hole in the floor, new number plates, gear oil, buddy club ecu from martin hopefully, fit wideband and get bung welded on dp, new discs all round, new tyres... damn i could keep going :D

If you wanted the OEM ones slightly different, perhaps put those LED bulbs in the lights and use some tinting spray? :)
