Calling ONNE

Post by motherofgod »

Could you tell if there were many adaptions with fitting highlight wings to your lowlight front panel? I want to know if I can fit a lowlight front panel and keep the highlight wings until I can afford to buy lowlight onnes :lol:

Nice piece in Minor Monthly

:D

You can only fit a lowlight panel with highlight wings.

So these wings have to be pre oct 1954 when the slatted grille was introduced.

My lowlight was in no way adapted to take the highlight wings :D

Slightly confused

your blue lowlight had highlight wings.

If I get a lowlight front panel will it fit where my old one was? without adaption? :roll:

No, your car is a later car, which has a slightly narrower front panel

You need to adapt your front outer wings, and the inner wigs if you want to fit the lowlight panel, or it might look weird :D
