My rear lights weren't vertical. I think as long as they aren't at a silly angle and have curved lenses so they aren't just
pointing skywards you should be OK. AFAIK the book doesn't really mention the angle of mounting of the rear lights, just visivbilty.

bugger it drilled one.
So is it ok to flush mount these, i did read somewhere that the fog is the only one that has to be level.

In the SVA manual there is a page that shows the angles and distances light need to be seen from. I think it looks quite smart flush 
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

i think so. i'm no expert, but i'm pretty sure the fog light is the only one which HAS to be vertical.

lens surface of fog lamp must be vertical.
check your positions accoding to this; rear end of 7 type car shown but the numbers still apply to yours.

Looking good Joe. Is the body fitted or just sat on?
Here's mine for comparison. Different (bigger and deeper) lamps that wouldn't have looked as good flush as yours...
