There has been a lot of discussion on here, concerning fitting Rover 45 silver lights. Well in this months MGOC magazine, they ahve the first part of a 2part history of the Z-Cars. And the ZS section, mentions something very interesting.

The bosses of Phoenix wanted the ZS to look very much like the current BMW 3-series, which had orange lenses. So instead of looking like an old mans 45, you can stay ornage and look like a premium german brand.

Its a very good article actually, and it highlights just how a few people can make a very good range of cars, in a short time, with a small budget. :clap:

Your cars very special then, BMW from the front and Lexus from the back.
i personally cant stand the orange indicators they make the car look dated imo.
R45 headlights have a cleaner modern look.

Can't see anything wrong with orange indicators. I was wondering as well why they made it like this and I can see it really makes sense... If you're going 60 and I'm going 65, I would indicate to pass as well :smurf:
