Saw this up, close and personal today at the Vx Open day at Ellesmere Port.

The interior is spot on, great effort in the back regarding the seats.:thumb:

Ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VAUXHALL-NOVA-TWIN-HEADLAMP-GRILLE-SET-1983-90_W0QQitemZ290062133893QQihZ019QQcategoryZ23009QQ rdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem)

Although I'm not sure of thats a legit Morette panel. Doesn't appear to be for a Mk1 either as the base is flat - assuming the pic is correct.

There's quite a few online retailers who list proper Morette headlamps though.

Aye its a Morette twin lamp setup with 1 peice grille for mk1.

I'd like the same for my mk2 but am not going to pay what the retail price is on them, and they are so dog ugly, am insisting on a better price tbh.

I reckon they would look better with the original inidcators taken out, the arch spaces for them welded up, and use the outer Morette light on each side for the indicators with orange bulbs.

^ Yep, thats why I prefer the Irmscher panel, as it covers the indicator hole. As thus:

[edit] Yes I know, I took the lamp out temporarily on purpose. And no, the bumper isn't bolted in properly hence wonkiness lol
