VW Grill in Sierra PICS AGAIN

Post by munecito »

Look what a spanish friend just did to his Sami. The grill is from a VW Golf 1 Cabrio. And the stops are from a Suzuki Super Carry.

Tails look awsome and are really practical, head lights would be a practical upgrade but look a little out of place there :) just my thorts though.

I like it.

The twin headlights really needs to be an uncluttered front like the one in the photo, wouldn't work with most bullbars. But for those without a big bar it adds the extra lights very cleanly.

The tail lights look great. Gee you could even just silicone them on and not wire them, up but have the real lights in the rear bar like so many big soccor-mum-mobiles. It is hard to see from the photo, but would they impede the swing open tail-gate from opening, might be a good excuse for converting to a drop-down. And for the Suzuki purists the lights are still a genuine Suzuki part.

I think he just used a little bit of angle grinder, modified mounts to suit the new grill and rewire of course. That grill is out of a special edition Golf 1 Cabrio. The regular grill has two round lights. I guess they have the same mounts than this one and it would probably look better.

The stop lights I have no idea what is involved but I guess angle grinder and drill and rewiring as well.

This is neat!
If I were to use a grille like this I´d wire up the outer lamps to work as normal headlights, with alternately low or high beam, and on the inners I´d wire high and low together and use them as extra lights. I´ve done it with some jury rigged extra lights and they were very effective. Some countries carry laws limiting the number of extra lights allowed, this mod would "hide" the most powerful pair :D

Taillights like this are definitely something I´ll consider for the I-Zook;
very neat and more out of harms way than "down under" :)
if you don´t know its impossible, you just might do it!

I think the rear bar should go altogether... too many lights, too much clutter! A nice plain rear bar to match the front bar :) But thats just my opinion. It's good to see something different - although its just not zook-cricket, LOL How can u turn a zook into a young brother of landcruiser god dammit!!??!!

Well, that wasn't his idea. It was me the one who thought they look similar with those square headlights.

The rear bar lights are now disconected. He is gonna make a stronger plain bar with tow/recovery points.
