    Default sri headlights

    i think that the dark surrounded sri headlights look superrb, however being the mizer i am id like to know if anyone knows if standard lights can be dismantled and painted to resemble sri versions.

    am i right to say that the dark surrounding colour is the only difference here?

    Why don't you go for the Carbon Effect Headlight covers instead of risking damage to the sealed unit headlights. I'm sure someone will be along shortly with pictures.

    I did this on my Astra G. Warmed them up in the oven(do'nt tell the wife) for 5-10 mins, the lens comes away easily and the chrome/black insert just falls out. I'm not willing to try this on my Vectra until someone else has
