Thanked 47 Times in 45 PostsMmmmm, I think I just made a mess! That is nearly perfect......but it could do with a set of clear rear lights from an S90. And guess what, I might be selling a set of them
I don't care if you have a T-5, a T-5R or an R......
......they wouldn't have existed if my Turbo hadn't forged the path!
