I tried it without a resonator at first. Was loud as f**k.
Put a 15" resonator in and it's just about right. You'll get to hear it in person on the weekend.

So did you just buy a set of indicators with the halos built in, or did you modify them?
They look very nice

Halo's sit on top of the indicator with double sided tape.

Ahh yes, I remember you saying you were doing the duals.
Will have a squizz on Saturday.
Meanwhile, won't have the FTO there to compare.
Lazy Merc weekend.

Picked up a replacement headlight from a local wrecker, $125 later... new one is the one on the left.

Needs a good polish though...

Took it in for a service at Tim's Home Garage. Filters, oil and auto fluid. Of which a not insignificant amount ended up on Tim and the floor.

Created a horrid creation, pre-facelift facelift :s
Pre-facelift with facelift indicators...
