Default What happens when I get bored.....

Ok so I was bored today and was looking at Eg city lights and thought it would be awsome to have a set for my Ef hatch. So I ran to the junk yard and picked up these:

There side market sockets. I got the 3 prong ones.

I then took an old marker light that was broken and removed the plastic around the 3 prong hole.. Front:

Back:

I then made a template with tape for the hole.


I had an exta set of head lights laying around so I took the black frame off and was left with this:


So the way the Eg's are the the city light is located below and to the inside of the light bulb. I took the template I made and cut the inside out and placed it on the light were I wanted it to be.

I then cut the hole out using a Dremel.This is the finished product.

Let me kno what everyone thinks...

or
If you like the idea I may do a DIY...
