Standard diameter. Put the Oem exhaust next to the omp one before fitting,

I'm always banging on about new headlights to folk who're spending a lot of time and money on GTT restorations, the pic above shows exactly why!
Looks absolutely great :)

Re: My Johnny 5 turbo project :)
Your`e not wrong there Trev I recently bought a fully restored Tungsten grey Gt and about the only little job the guy didn`t do was replace the headlights bought a set off the same guy as Matt and for the sake of £14.99 each the difference is amazing..:) oh and the car looks very nice Matt a credit to your hard work there.

Re: My Johnny 5 turbo project :)
Thanks guys. No suspension on it at the minute though :( need all the top strut housing.

Re: My Johnny 5 turbo project :)
You might be best off using the original springs on your suspension rebuild mate as most o the time brand new springs are the wrong length.

Yep next job :)

Re: My Johnny 5 turbo project :)
Awesome. I didn't want to say before, that having done everything else on the front the fogs needed a bit of TLC to match.
Btw, those indicators. Are the little tabs located properly in the slots that are in the lower edge of the headlights?
