Yup mate they look exactly the same as what I've got
might be tempted cause there not a bad price and see if i can pick up the outer 2 vents another time from ebay if they come up.

are you going to make up your own wiring for them ? do you have a pic of the plug or the wiring on the vents you got ?

Was it much agro to wire in the W8 light?

No mate very easy
Connect the loom from light to cars wiring, then run the long wire across the top down the pillar to the back of headlight switch to connect to dimmer
All you have to do is remove some of the padding which is near the roof as this stops the light sitting flush as it hits the connector
All in all about a hour at tops

Here is a pic of the wire as it comes out of the vent

If you don't have the connectors all you will have to do is strip the wire

You can see the connector in that photo

And here is a pic of it lit up

Nope worse you have to do is get a wire joiner
Where you put it on the wire squeeze with pliers and that splices into the loom
Then you squeeze ur wire and it connects to it

I got my middle vents, the plug is so small and fiddle, might just have to cut that off and separate the live and earth. have you wired your vents so they work on the dimmer ? if so can you remember what colour wire on the headlight switch you tapped it into ?

Did you drill a hole in the vent ducting for the wires as I can't see any where I can run them, it's a sealed ?

You certainly keep your self busy with this car, those air vents look cool, nice touch.

What wheels are they? You can't just tease us like that ;)
