The UK grill isn't a UK/Euro only piece. I've seen one maxima around me driving around with one, and then I saw it broken (Euro grill) then I saw it later with the grill again. So it must be swappable with one from something else. No clue what though

Yeah, I dont like the fact that you can't put lights in the euro corners. I drilled holes out for the 1157 bulbs, but I didn't bother with the 194's.

Originally I cut the holes for both the large and small bulb on my UKs (and took the corner apart to take the small silver piece out of the small part).

I didnt like how the big bulb looked with my headlights but wanted to keep the small corner light to stay legal and because I just like the way it looked...

Here is a pic:

quick question, did you have them come on all the time or with the turn signals? well not all the time, but when you hit the driving lights switch.

I didnt do any rewiring on them. They are just like the factory and only come on with the driving lights. I had thought about making it a turn signal but never got around to it before I decided to sell it.

Yo bro, the sr20det won't fit; you have to use the rb26dett, which by the way, Mordez, is twin turbo.
