Small "twin" headlight units?

Folks,

I'm looking for some small headlights - I know SVC do some 90mm ones, but with brackets, they're more like 5".

I'm sure someone has lights on their car which, iirc, are two per side, each pair mounted side by side, in a rectangular (but rounded ends) housing.

Ring any bells with anyone? If not, I may have to think about the SVC 90mm items, and modify brackets - 3.5" sounds ideal.

Thanks

Simon

I think I remember the ones, small twin oval's. IIRC they were motorbike lights from the states. I'd guess not SVA safe but that it won't affect you (except at MOT).

Ahahaha, think I've found the ones.

unless im mistaken, those lights are £260 each, so maybe not ideal!

M and P price is £99.95 each which is still silly money for lights that don't pass SVA.

Can't see any difference between the designs.

.....however, I spotted a Smart Roadster today, and thought I could use them

So, I know there are a few Smart owners on here, what are the prices of parts like?

Obviously, I won't be too interested if the lights are a hundred quid each

Cheers

Simon
