Are bowls for square and round the same ? Also been told Escort headlamps will fit but only upside down ? If someone could spell it all out for me please :)

Right let's spell it out for you!

Facelift Headlights are not the same as pre facelift and..

Do NOT have Buckets :wink:

Pre facelift have buckets which are NOT handed but....

round and square are NOT the same :wink:

Mk2 Escort buckets are the same as pre facelift Transit buckets.

If you fit a pre facelift,metal,grille to facelift headlights then

the headlights will protrude too far through it and look 5hit 8)

All headlight are available with either H4 halogen or normal

old pre focus 410 type bulbs....

Any more questions please ask..............
