That. Looks. Amazing! When you said amber I thought you meant the standard yellowish ones.

Seen these on eBay and thinking of chucking a bid on them but it says there LED style... Do all German rears need LED indicator bulbs for these or can you just put standard ones in because in my experience LEDs have been a pain in the A**E haha

Used to be a group that sold them led ones and replicas that the bulb holder plug in to

But I can't find them anywhere so I assume they've stopped making them

I know that you can get just normal bulb ones, but they may have to come from Germany

So made a little start on the tailgate of the car, she's by no means ready for painting but at least it's a start [emoji106] got all the little rust blisters out there was a few more than I originally thought but that's how it goes doesn't it.



Put some jenolite on the really bad bits which I really rate works a treat [emoji108]




Still under 2 minds wether or not to make it semi smooth or not I'm really on the edge with it but gonna make that decision over the weekend [emoji106]

So next weeks plans are to get some primer on the tailgate and then followed up by some fresh paintwork. Also I have just ordered up 5 meters of suede fabric to re upholster my door cards and quarter panel trims [emoji108] I will have some pics of this up as I do the job which I'm really looking forward to doing.

On another note tho my pressed plated arrived today wooooooo! [emoji41][emoji16]



More updates to come lads [emoji4]

Great update Nath, you're not long getting through the rust and all haha
It's funny how it's all the same places on corsa's.

Loving the pressed plates too lad, don't know whether to get a set for myself.

Looking forward to the re-upholstering job too!

Cheers mate, yeah when you have the tools to hand it makes a job easier, this only took me 45 mins to do after work, but still loads more in it at the moment.

Yeah Ive been after pressed plates for ages but always bought something else instead haha £18 though for the pair which wasn't bad I didn't think, but they are better than normal dealer plates.

Really can't wait to do the upholstery I'm going with like a dark steel grey suede think it will work well with the black seats and other black trims

Well that would be true enough regarding the tools!

There's always something else needing bought!

You'll be getting a job in a shirt factory next with this upholstering haha
