Will the 2000 face lift rear lights fit on 96 (saloon) ?
Are the plugs or wiring different ?
The orange rear indicators just don't go with a black car.

yes they do,i have done this.all u have to do is swap the indicator and reverse lights over.ie cut the main feed to the bulb holder and swop around.its dead easy.ill have a look 2morrow and tell ya wot wires to cut and join;)
aaagh dont cut them the wires come out of the plugs pull out the retaining clip and there is a little metal clip in the plug which is part of the connecter lift it up with a needle or similar and swap them over you can trace the wires on the bulb holder buy seein which one you want to light up but >96 bulb holder are different they have a separate side light you need bulb holders 98 on but they are cheap even from dealersQuote:
