Sure the rear lights from Novas are in use in some silly little city car, but had this mentioned to me tonight, look like mk2 Nova headlights

Awesome lol JDM tite y0! Wonder if you can get amber corners lol
Very similar but I doubt they're the same seeing as Daihatsu are owned by Toyota, GM's biggest rival iirc. I can't see them sharing each others parts bin lol The indicators look a bit different to me as well.
Unless you know for sure they are the same? lol

I was told by a friend who has repaired one in a bodyshop, bare in mind that they are made by Valeo not GM, looking on ebay at an actual light they look slightly differnt fixxings but the glass is identical

id be more worried about this lol
Interior/Comfort
Power Steering, Sunroof lol
The lights will be valeo units, but I still think its unlikely they'd be allowed to sell them to Daihatsu, especially as indeed they are owned by Mr T.
The mk1 Aixam 500 things (made by reliant iirc) share the same nova rear lights whereas the newer ones are similarly shaped but are taller and narrower!

There was some little crappy tincan car that used Nova rear lights too, can't think what it was called though :(
