that would be very naughty of RPM to supply them and not tell you that! easy to check though just see if the studs match up top

Have you got a pic of the Ground Control ones please Jason?

I will hey some pics the guys at Gaz thought they were the same

do to the slots the plates bolt up but from memory are twisted

if you look at the ground control e30 the adjustment is away from the single bolt mount

Thanks Jason.

Going to swap the headlights over to singles today.

Fingers crossed that the wiring doesn't become too much of a chore! The single wiper on Monday.

Nice one mark, I've never been a great fan of the single lights but have to admit on your car they look wicked....

I think if you are trying to create the "Retro" image then, yes perfect, however to a car like my Henna Red one, a definate no.

I must admit, when you said you were going for single, i thought u were crazy, but on your car,i think you have pulled it off. I dont think you can sway me on the single wiper though.

Good work Mark.

I agree....& reunite the clears with the car they came off

As Aydin said really did think single lights would work but they really do!

Keep the clear indicators too. Car is getting better and better with each mod!

The orange lenses look rubbish so the clears are going nowhere.

i think it was just a ploy for someone to nick your clear indicators lol

car looks great
