few lil questions

[W4dey]

Firstly am i right in thinking, that if i buy rear lights from america they wont be uk legal?

2. has anyone had any experience with skunk2 coilovers?

3. im looking to upgrade the wheels shortly from stock 15s to 18s, will this affect my speedo readout? if yes how easy is it to sort out?


any help greatly appreciated cheers

The lights are unlikely to be E-Marked and you may need, depending on the configuration, to rewire them so that your indicators flash orange. As for legality... I'm not sure. I know bulbs have to have E-marks, but not sure about lenses.

Shocks - Skunk2... Not heard of them BUT they sound american? Be careful if that's true, as the US-Spec 8G Galant does use a different strut assembly at the front - US springs won't fit Euro/Jap cars.

Wheels - Have a search around, lots of wheel/tyre threads. :)

if you keep the overall circumference of your tyres the same, the wheels make no difference.

Euro=Jap, it is only the US market versions that have different suspension.
