They look well smart!

I especially like the arrangement with the inner lamps higher up than the outer ones.

Just get 'em wired up and you're sorted!!

I was wondering how this would look as I've been seriously tempted to do the same to mine - I think it looks fantastic!

Yeah I've never consider 4 lights before, but after seeing this arrangement me likes very much , it certainly looks better than just having the 4 lights all in one straight line!

Tim

Looks very good. Your evil pictures are tempting me to do something similar to my MINI...

Very 'groovy' Tim I like the way you've placed them. Looks like it's back to the dealers for another two spots

Would make a very impressive night light. Did you align them straight forward or angled for side visibility too? Like:

Have to say I'm very tempted. I don't know how much, but interesting.

Tim,
That looks really good. I like the way they appear to follow the contour of the bonnet.
For the centre ones have you drilled into the chrome grill or is there some frame there which they are mounted on?

I ordered my four lamps today, pick 'em up thursday.

I agree. I have been thinking about this withthe outside ones wide angle (fog) and the inner ones long range driving. the fogs would go on in conjunction with the side lights and/or low beams and the pencil beams with the high beams

very smart tim. definately better with the higher mounting.

am i right in thinking the original italian job minis with the 3 spots in a pyramid shape would actually be illegal today as they have to be mounted in pairs of equal hight?
