Tiny, looking good mate! Good taste in lights btw! So what's next on the 'shopping list'? Hehe!

Just wondering about the grille mesh idea...I'm wanting to do the same thing (might pass on the pink tho hehehe), but drawing a blank on how to fit it securely and not rattle. Got any suggestions??

Carves your crafty idea to use those Landy-style clips for the grille won't work on the tj...spent a good chunk of the arvo trying to figure out a solution. In the area between the ratiator n behind the grille bars, space is at a premium. Depth-wise got plenty of room to play, but the width is the main issue.

Kinda following what you mean...you used silicone on the metal 'lips' of the grille bar inners to stop the rattling and stick it down yeah? did you use any other means of securing it (like cable-ties, clips, etc)? Access between the radiator n grille is a bitach on the tj so i just want to do the job once! Haha!
